4This is a very dangerous thing to do. The user could also enter client-side scripting and your website would serve that scripting to its users as thought it came from you. – David Apr 29 '13 at 14:03

If you dump that text directly into a div, does that not work? EDIT: This is of course with the warning that @David has given above. – Ravi Y Apr 29 '13 at 14:03

As @David mentioned, taking html tags can be dangerous. I would use [markdownsharp](https://code.google.com/p/markdownsharp/) instead – I4V Apr 29 '13 at 14:23

Use @Html.Raw( [your HTML code from the database] ) in your View.

@Champ726337: It's pretty much all or nothing with HTML. You could strip anything between <> characters that doesn't match those tags, if you want to dive into the magical lands of Regex. – Jeff Apr 29 '13 at 14:10

@Champ726337: In that case: clearify your question. Or at least: ask a question. I had the impression you that the textarea and database part were already done and you could not fix the last step... – Martin Mulder Apr 29 '13 at 14:23
