Hi,

In the last week i was busy with the same issue, here is what i did:
when you present the data i have done:

Controller:

var html = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(page.Description);

page.Description = html.IndentHtml();

View:

<%=Model.Page.Description%>

when saving the data i have done:

View:

<% Html.Telerik().Editor()

.Name("Description")

.Value(()=>

{

%>

<%

})

.Render(); %>

controller:
you dont need to do anything.

the editor save the HTMLencoded in the db.
then you need to read it from DB and present it in the view, you need to decode it.

I have tested the code for java-script injections and when you write html code he will present you html code back in the view.

hope it helps
