title: Smarty displays raw HTML
body: <p>I am passing my HTML string to the <code>$content</code> variable and trying to display it, in the result I see raw HTML tags instead of the string markup.</p>
  
  <p><code>Controller</code>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$content = "&lt;strong&gt;Test markup&lt;/strong&gt;";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>index.tpl</code>:</p>
  
  <p><code>{$content}</code> - displays just raw variable content without markup: <code>&lt;strong&gt;Test markup&lt;/strong&gt;</code> INSTEAD of the <strong>Test markup</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>When I type manually the above variable content in the <code>index.tpl</code> then it works just fine so it seems to be some variable-related issue.</p>
  
  <p><strong>What have I tried:</strong></p>
  
  <p><code>{content|nofilter}</code> - to be sure its not caused by any of the Smarty's variable filters.</p>
  
  <p>Could someone help me to localize the problem?</p>
