I have a textarea control that accepts input. I am trying to later render that text to a view by simply using:
@Model.CommentText
This is properly encoding any values. However, I want to replace the line break characters with <br />
and I can't find a way to make sure that the new br tags don't get encoded. I have tried using HtmlString but haven't had any luck yet.
Use the CSS white-space property instead of opening yourself up to XSS vulnerabilities!
<span style="white-space: pre-line">@Model.CommentText</span>
