Are you saying that "myfield" is some HTML text stored in a database, and
you want to insert the HTML in a view? Note, by default, web2py escapes all
content written to views -- this is a security measure to prevent malicious
code from running. You can prevent the escaping by wrapping in the XML()
helper:
{{=XML(myfield)}}
Note, this can be dangerous, so don't do it if myfield contains
user-entered content. You can minimize the risk by sanitizing:
{{=XML(myfield, sanitize=True)}}
though that limits the type of content that can be included.
See http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/05#XML.
