I am using JSF 2.2.9 and Primefaces 6.
I am generating a report using BIRT which produces an HTML string which I want to display as text using h:outputText inside a scrollable panel ie. p:scrollPanel. After searching the net it suggests setting the excape attribute of h:outputText to false but all I get is the complete dialog being blank, if I set excape to true the dialog displays correctly but the h:outputText contains the HTML
Code: Select all
