Visualforce displaying tags and not the real HTML page
I am passing a list to a HTML table in a VF controller.
actionResults = actionResults + '<li>' + sbiA.Name + '</li>';
res.actions = actionResults;
in the VF page
<td>Actions:</td><td>{!res.actions}</td>
There is other code too but I am not posting all the code.
So the problem is that when I view the page I see tags in the OP.
Like this
<li>Test Action 2</li><li>Test Action</li> |
I want it to be displayed like below..
- Test Action 2
- Test Action
If you want to return markup from a controller method you will need to include it using <apex:outputText> with the escape=false attribute.
If you do this be aware it is up to you to ensure you have not created a cross-site scripting security vulnerability in your page.
It would be better to put the markup in the page and only the data in the controller method.

100% agreed with aballard - as a general rule, you don't want HTML code coming through from your Controller. If that's how it is though (description field, etc) he is correct. The <apex:outputText value="{!whatever}" escape="false" /> is your answer.
