Embed HTML in GridView data

[dgerdner]

I have a gridview with a sql datasource. In one of the columns I would like to have the data include html tags. However, when the data is shown in the gridview the html tags are either ignored or cause formatting problems.

For instance, if I have the following data:

line1<br>line2<br>

it displays just like above rather than actually having line breaks. Is there a way to have the gridview translate the html tags?

set the gridview bound column HTMLEncode="False".
