Including HTML variable in Django template without escaping

Question

I have html encoded text which reads like this:

RT <a href="http://twitter.com/freuter">@freuter</a>...

I want this displayed as html but I am not sure if there is a filter which i can apply to this text to convert the html-encoded text back to html ...

can someone help?

As Daniel says, use the {{ tweet|safe }} filter in the html, or mark it safe from the views.

Use django.template.mark_safe()

But first check if the content is really safe. I would not blindly trust tweets directly from twitter's api for example. – bjunix May 14 '12 at 10:57

Try the |safe filter if you want to render all HTML.
