Html.DisplayFor shows tags as plain text

Question

<div id="contact-description">
    @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.Description)
</div>

This is the output this code gives, while the output should only be "Test". How to hide the Span tag?

Answer 1

Presuming your Description property value contains HTML tags (the <span> ):

You want @Html.Raw(Model.Description) . @Html.DisplayFor will automatically delimit HTML to prevent HTML injection. If your expecting HMTL output use Raw()
