I also got several suggestions to use outputraw. That doesn't solve my problem, because I only want a small portion of my string to be output raw, the part that has embedded HTML tags in it. The rest, which is coming from the database, I want properly escaped. I had hoped that I could just call the code Tapestry uses to escape strings, and build my string up myself in my page class. I hadn't thought to do it with a component. So I'm looking into that. Candidly, this is my first time trying to use MarkupWriter in a component, as opposed to a template. I think what I want to do is disable the default render of the component's body (which will contain the text to be specially output), and instead put my marked-up text into the MarkupWriter myself. Right? So I think I want to write a @BeforeRenderBody method, send my text to the MarkupWriter in that method, and return false from it, so that the default body render doesn't happen. However, I can't figure out how to actually _get_ the contents of the tag's body inside of my @BeforeRenderBody method. Does it have something to do with zones?
