c# - Display string as html in asp.net mvc view

Question

I have a controller which generates a string containing html markup. When it displays on views, it is displayed as a simple string containing all tags.

I tried to use an Html helper to encode/decode to display it properly, but it is not working.

string str= "<a href="/Home/Profile/seeker">seeker</a> has applied to <a href="/Jobs/Details/9">Job</a> floated by you.</br>";

On my views,

@Html.Encode(str)

Answer 1

You are close you want to use @Html.Raw(str)

@Html.Encode takes strings and ensures that all the special characters are handled properly. These include characters like spaces.
