display HTML content from database with formatting in it
- by Gaurav Sharma
Hi all,
I have used wmd-editor in my cakephp v1.3 application.
The config which I have written is as follows:
wmd_options = {
output: "HTML",
lineLength: 40,
buttons: "bold italic | link blockquote code image | ol ul heading hr",
autostart: true
};
When I submit the form the HTML in the wmd enabled textarea is saved in the database with htmlentities() done to the text then I am displaying it with html_entity_decode() method.
but the text is displayed as it is including the HTML coding like this
<p><strong>hello dear friends</strong></p>\n\n<pre><code>I want to make sure that everything that you type is visible clearly.\nadasfafas\n</code></pre>\n\n<blockquote>\n <p>sadgsagasdgxcbxcbxc</p>\n</blockquote>\n\n<p><em>sadfgsgasdsgasgs</em></p>\n\n<p><b><a href="http://kumu.in">this is the link</a></b></p>
Please help me solve this problem
Thanks
