Writing/outputting HTML strings unescaped

Question

I've got safe/sanitized HTML saved in a DB table.

How can I have this HTML content written out in a Razor view?

It always escapes characters like < and ampersands to &.

Answer 1

Supposing your content is inside a string named mystring...

You can use:

@Html.Raw(mystring) 

Alternatively you can convert your string to HtmlString or any other type that implements IHtmlString in model or directly inline and use regular @:

@{ var myHtmlString = new HtmlString(mystring);} @myHtmlString 

Answer 2

In ASP.NET MVC 3 You should do something like this:

// Say you have a bit of HTML like this in your controller: ViewBag.Stuff = "<li>Menu</li>" //  Then you can do this in your view: @MvcHtmlString.Create(ViewBag.Stuff)
