    Umbraco Forms automatically escaping slashes in strings

    I have a form which has some short answer fields for a user to enter a URL. When I pull this through though it automatically escapes the slashes so the URL is malformed. So in the CMS it appears:

    enter image description here

    But when I pull the data through in the View it comes out as:

    enter image description here

    and so doesn't work. How can I stop the escape characters?

    Thanks, John

    note interestingly if I enter the malformed URL here, it fixes it, so I posted a screenshot instead, but that must mean it's an easy/obvious fix! :)
