html tags in string fields

Karlo

Hello!
I'm wondering how DataTables is handling html tags in the data of string fields.

Please look at this sample: https://jsfiddle.net/pfxu512n/

In the dataSet there's a field value "Tiger <b>Nixon</b>" and this is shown as bold (for the last name). Is this by design? If I want the grid to display the original characters from the source, do I need to change the source data accordingly, or is there a setting?

Thanks

Yes, by default DataTables will render HTML. If you don't want that, see this section of the manual.
