Question

I have html being printed out in a method. Here is the code:

@Html.Raw(Html.GenerateTabs())  //works -- but is inconvinent

Is really did not want to do every method like this. Here is the way i wanted to do it. But it does not work. When when I run the code html prints in the browser.

@Html.GenerateTabs()   //prints html in the broswer


<text>@Html.GenerateTabs()</text>  //prints html in the broswer

Is there a razor friendly way to do this?

Answer 1

If your code outputs an MvcHtmlString instead of string, it will output properly with the HTML contained therein.

You construct the MvcHtmlString with a static factory method it has, from the string with HTML.

public MvcHtmlString OutputHtml() {
    return MvcHtmlString.Create("<div>My div</div>");
}

then in view:

@OutputHtml()
