Print html the normal way

[Ashish Jain]

Hi,

I wrote a simple filter as:

@register.filter()
def html(value):
    return '<p>Check</p>'

when I use this filter in my template, it displays html as:

<p>Check</p>

I want to display as:

Check

am I missing something.

- Thanks for your help
Ashish

You haven't marked the output as safe, so Django escapes it:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/howto/custom-template-tags/#filters-and-auto-escaping

You want option 2.

Use

 {{yourvar|html|striptags}}

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templates/builtins/#striptags
