safeHTML
Syntax
safeHTML INPUT
It should not be used for HTML from a third-party, or HTML with unclosed tags or comments.
Given a site-wide config.toml with the following copyright value:
copyright = "© 2015 Jane Doe. <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/\">Some rights reserved</a>."
{{ .Site.Copyright | safeHTML }} in a template would then output:
© 2015 Jane Doe. <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/">Some rights reserved</a>.
However, without the safeHTML function, html/template assumes .Site.Copyright to be unsafe and therefore escapes all HTML tags and renders the whole string as plain text:
<p>© 2015 Jane Doe. <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses by/4.0/">Some rights reserved</a>.</p>
