Render Html From Database to Asp.net

I have an Html string which is stored in a Database . I fetch this string and try to render it through a literal control, but it is rendering the complete HTML code in that literal again. I have tried html encoding as well but it still fails.

My text Stored in Database is like this :

<p><b>Location. </b> <br />The Leela Palace Udaipur is a business-friendly property     located in Udaipur's Lake Pichola neighborhood, close to Lake Palace, Jag Niwas, and Jagdish Temple. Additional points of interest include City Palace and Crystal Gallery. </p>

But when I view the page it is same as above.

Please help me to find the solution. I am not using MVC

Best way, Use HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(this.Text).

Worked for me

Set the LiteralMode of your LiteralControl to PassThrough:

<asp:LiteralControl ID="yourHtml" runat="server" LiteralMode="PassThrough"></asp:LiteralControl>

From MSDN:

If you specify PassThrough, the entire contents of the Text property are passed to the device or browser without making any modifications

Warning: I hope you are confident of the HTML in the database that nothing malicious could ever creep in, because this is dangerous.
