htmlOutput vs. uiOutput

[Ramnath Vaidyanathan]

Is there a difference between htmlOutput and uiOutput. Seeing the function code, they appear to be the same. In fact, even tableOutput provides the same code. But I was wondering if there is a difference under the hood?

try:

library(shiny)

?htmlOutput

"uiOutput is intended to be used with reactiveUI on the server side. It is currently just an alias for htmlOutput."

Oops. I should have read the documentation better! Thanks.
