netui:content Tag

<netui:content> Tag

The <netui:content> tag displays text or the result of an expression to the page.

Syntax

<netui:content
    [defaultValue="string_or_expression_defaultOutput"]
    value="string_or_expression_output" />

Description

The <netui:content> tag displays text or the result of an expression to the page. Note that <netui:content> is similar to <netui:label> , except for the way it processes HTML-sensitive text. The <netui:content> tag does not escape HTML-sensitive characters, but the <netui:label> tag filters the input string for characters that are senstive to HTML interpreters and replaces these characters with the corresponding entity strings. For example, if you pass the string '&amp;' to a <netui:label> tag, the string '&amp;amp;' will be written to the HTML source file, and the following will be displayed in the browser: '&amp;'.

The following table shows how the <netui:label> and <netui:content> tags treat HTML-sensitive characters.
