ASP.NET MVC3, Html.TextAreaFor without encoding?

Question

How can I use the Html.TextAreaForwithout encoding it? I know it\'s a security risk but I have a separate class that sanitizes any text.

Example:

@Html.TextA

Answer 1

You will need to roll your own:

    @MvcHtmlString.Create(Model.PostBodyText)

Of course in terms of security this could be very dangerous as your site is now vulnerable to XSS attacks. So the question is why having a separate class that sanitizes all the text when you can simply rely on the HTML helpers to do the job for you?
