Question

To make an URL within a translatable text we use {0} as placeholder.

So we do:

@string.Format(@translationHelper.GetTranslation("label-ClickToContinue"),
    @Html.ActionLink(
        @translationHelper.GetTranslation("text-here"),
               "Login",
               new { Model.UserName, Model.UniqueId }
    )
)

Translation keys:

label-ClickToContinue = "Click {0} to continue"
text-here = "here"

But this prints the escaped string into the source: <a href="/Login/Login?UserName=alberttest3&UniqueId=f3647fed-bab4-4575-bb5f-98ed27edff43">label-RequestNewOfficeWizard</a>

How to make sure that it’ll not show the html-tag, but the URL?

Answer 1

It easy just put the output from string.Format() inside a Html.Raw() like this:

@Html.Raw(string.Format(@translationHelper.GetTranslation("label-ClickToContinue"),
       @Html.ActionLink(
            @translationHelper.GetTranslation("text-here"),
            "Login",
            new { Model.UserName, Model.UniqueId }
       )
))

Translation keys:

label-ClickToContinue = "Click {0} to continue"
text-here = "here"
