CheckBoxFor with Label and raw HTML

[NovaStor]

Hi.

I'd like to display a checkbox with a label that contains HTML.

 

For example:

 

Model:

 

[Display(Name = "I agree to the <a href=\"{0}\">Terms and Conditions</a>")]

public bool IAgreeToTheTermsAndConditions { get; set; }

 

View:

 

@Html.Kendo().CheckBoxFor(model => model.IAgreeToTheTermsAndConditions).Label(

                            string.Format(

                                Html.DisplayNameFor(model2 => model2.IAgreeToTheTermsAndConditions).ToString(),                                 @Url.Action("TermsAndConditions", null)))

 

However, the label is rendered with the HTML encoded:

I have agree to the &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;/TermsAndConditions&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Terms and Conditions&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;

 

How can I pass raw HTML to the Label?

 

Thank you.

Hello,

As we are using basic Html helpers the behavior you are experiencing is not something we have control over. The encoding is MVC specific. As a possible solution, I could suggest creating a custom Html helper which will make the checkbox with the label as a link. More information can be obtained at the following StackOverflow thread: https://stackoverflow.com/a/30476657/12355063

Another alternative would be creating a resource file that returns strings. Information about this at the below links:

Please let me know if you have other questions.
