Include <br> elements in shortcode parameters

[scooti9]

But what can I do when I want use <br> in parameter/argument in my shortcode?

outputData = `Some long title with
<br>
line breaks
<br> 
and see this breaks on the page.`

I see this <br> like a normal text.

Do you have some solution for that?

Thanks!

Here’s a simple example…

markdown

{{< my-shortcode text="foo<br>bar<br>baz" >}}

layouts/shortcodes/my-shortcode.html

{{ .Get "text" | safeHTML }}

rendered HTML

foo<br>bar<br>baz

screen capture

One of the possible options is to create layouts/shortcodes/br.html shortcode with the following content:

<br>

and following usage:

foo{{< br >}}bar{{< br >}}baz

Or, just create layouts/shortcodes/raw.html with the following content:

{{ .Inner }}

and following usage:

{{<raw-html >}}
foo<br>bar<br>baz
{{< /raw-html >}}

One other option would also be:

{{< my-shortcode text=`line1
line2
line3` >}}

And then:

{{ .Get "text" | .Page.RenderString }}
