Re: preventing template from converting html entities

[Federico Capoano]

Hey sorry guys, i couldn't find this post anymore!

Thanks for the answers but i've found the resolution to my problem in
the documentation, i just forgot in the beginning where it says about

{% autoescape off %}

This is the tag to use to prevent the template system from converting



in

"

Example:

Test

Becomes

Test

Causing serious problems on some browsers, cos the html is not valid.

While

{% autoescape off %}Test{% endautoescape %}

will output correctly

Test.

Didn't try force_escape, but that sounds the opposite of what I want
to do..

Thanks.

PS: Django is great, no doubt the best framework I ever used.

Oops, it would actually be
title={% filter force_escape %}{{ villa.name }}{% endfilter %}

Sorry.

I think you can do that with title={% filter force_escape
%}"{{ villa.name }}"{% endfilter %}. Haven't tried it though.

If I've understood you correctly, it's not the templating system that
is converting it, but the browser. When a browser sees  it will
print ".

To prevent this, you'll need to double-escape it - ie replace the &
with the encoded version, so you have quot;

preventing template from converting html entities

[Federico Capoano]

Hello to all,

simple question:

I have the following HTML in a template:


But it gets rendered this way:


That is, the  entity is converted to the respective character,
". Very nice, but i'd need 

Is there a filter or something i can use to tell the Django Template
System to render  ?

Thanks in advance.

Federico
