Content Query web part Rendering HTML source

Question

We are using a Content Query web part to query for a specific reusable HTML content item and display it in a page layout (so it exists on every page) but it is appearing as HTML source, not rendered HTML. Any idea?

Answer 1

For me I had to do the reverse, and enable output escaping.

<xsl:value-of select="@Value" disable-output-escaping="yes" />

Answer 2

You'll have to customise the ItemStyle.xsl file (ie: by creating a copy and adding your own style) which prints out the content - and specify disable-output-escaping="no".

Like this:

 <xsl:value-of select="@Value" disable-output-escaping="no" />
