Angular 4 Output Complete HTML Syntax Code In HTML As Raw Text

I have scoured the possible answers and none of them work. All the innerHTML and PRE tag examples are fine with code or text, but NOT with HTML. Here is EXACTLY what I want to pu

Solution 1:

Binding with [innerHTML] will interpret the HTML. If you want to show the HTML code, you could use [innerText] instead, or simply use string interpolation as @Vega noted. That will properly escape the HTML.

<div>{{ code1 }}</div>

// or

<div [innerText]="code1"></div>

Binding to [innerText] will preserve the line breaks.

Solution 2:

The innerHTML is if you want to actually show HTML that is inserted in the DOM as part of the document.

You want the normal {{ code1 }} syntax which will encode the variable for displaying.

Adding a code and a pre will style it the way you want (or you can do the same through CSS by setting the css of the container to have white-space:pre)

<div><code><pre>{{code1}}</pre></code></div>
