    Get HTML from Property using Umbraco

    I have a page with a richeditor and I need to get at the property's HTML value instead of just text.

     

    Node currentPage = Node.GetCurrent();
    int loopCount = 0;

    for (int nodeCount = currentPage.Children.Count-1; nodeCount > -1; nodeCount--)
    {
    loopCount += 1;
    Node page = currentPage.Children[nodeCount];

    string day = page.CreateDate.ToString("dd");
    string month = page.CreateDate.ToString("MMM");
    string topic = page.GetProperty("blogTopic").Value;
    string comment = page.GetProperty("blogComment").Value;
    string author = page.GetProperty("blogName").Value;

    AddDataToTable(day, month, topic, comment, author, dtAuction);

    if (loopCount == 50) break;

    }

     

    This just gets me the text and not the HTML inside.

     

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Craig,

    I assume you get the encoded HTML as text? If so try HttpServerUtility.HtmlDecode. Example can be found on  the MSDN site

    Cheers,

    Hi Richard,


    Thanks for the reply.  The problem I'm having is

    page.GetProperty("blogComment").Value;

    blogComment has carriage returns in the text editor but the above line just returns the text regardless of carriage returns.  This result in one big piece of text?

    You can use umbraco.library.ReplaceLineBreaks(page.GetProperty("blogComment").Value) to replace the carriage returns with <br/> tags

    Hi Tom,

    Thanks for the help......I've been acting a little like a fool with this one.  Just taken a fresh look at things and

    comment = comment.Replace(

    "\n","<br />");

    Worked

    Thanks for the help tom.

    Craig
