Skip to content

Is there a way to have an option to not escape the contents of <textarea>? #116

I'm trying to get a clean reader view of a website and when a website has a markdown content (i.e https://domchristie.github.io/turndown/) w/c happens to be inside a <textarea> tag, it escapes it w/c in my case is not what i need. I know this library escapes <textarea> content since it may be vulnerable to security issues

For example: trying to library on this https://domchristie.github.io/turndown/ will result in with escaped values resulting to incorrect markdown display

<div class="row"><span>
  </span><p>
    <label for="input">HTML</label>
    <textarea cols="100" rows="10" id="input">&lt;h1&gt;Turndown Demo&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This demonstrates &lt;a href="https://github.com/domchristie/turndown"&gt;turndown&lt;/a&gt; – an HTML to Markdown converter in JavaScript.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Usage&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code class="language-js"&gt;var turndownService = new TurndownService()
console.log(
  turndownService.turndown('&lt;h1&gt;Hello world&lt;/h1&gt;')
)&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It aims to be &lt;a href="http://commonmark.org/"&gt;CommonMark&lt;/a&gt;
 compliant, and includes options to style the output. These options include:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;headingStyle (setext or atx)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;horizontalRule (*, -, or _)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;bullet (*, -, or +)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;codeBlockStyle (indented or fenced)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;fence&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;emDelimiter (_ or *)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;strongDelimiter (** or __)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;linkStyle (inlined or referenced)&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;linkReferenceStyle (full, collapsed, or shortcut)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</textarea>
  </p><span>
  </span><p>
    <label for="output">Markdown</label>
    <textarea readonly="" cols="100" rows="10" id="output"></textarea>
  </p><span>
</span></div>
