HTML content returned from jQuery.ajax not parsing as HTML

HTML content returned from jQuery.ajax not parsing as HTML

I'm using a coldfusion cfsavecontent tag in a cfc to generate a block of html.  This cfc is called from jQuery.ajax.  The success block is this function:

  1. ,success: function(response)
    {
        jQuery("#divDataDisplay").html(response);
        [other unrelated code here]
    }





The content that displays on the page due to the success block includes html tags as plain text - not rendered as html.

The closest closed ticket I found was http://forum.jquery.com/topic/display-the-result-of-jquery-ajax-call-as-html-string-and-not-plain-string ,  but OP’s work-around did not function for me.

I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

Thank you.
