I am trying to directly output HTML stored within my MySQL database as HTML, but the browser is rendering it as plain text.
I am working within OpenCart so I am not sure if there are references in other pages that may be affecting my code.
This is where I am defining the variable from the MySQL array
$results = $this->model_catalog_manufacturer->getManufacturers();
foreach ($results as $result) {
if (is_numeric(utf8_substr($result['name'], 0, 1))) {
$key = '0 - 9';
} else {
$key = utf8_substr(utf8_strtoupper($result['name']), 0, 1);
}
if (!isset($data['categories'][$key])) {
$data['categories'][$key]['name'] = $key;
}
$data['categories'][$key]['manufacturer'][] = array(
'name' => $result['name'],
'href' => $this->url->link('product/manufacturer/info', 'manufacturer_id=' . $result['manufacturer_id']),
'image' => $result['image'],
'banner' => $result['banner'],
'blurb' => $result['blurb'],
);
}
$data['brand_blurb'] = $manufacturer_info['blurb'];
This is where I am echoing the variable
<div class="brand_description"><?php echo $brand_blurb; ?></div>
Do you know what I might be doing wrong? I am still new to PHP so I appreciate the help.
Thank you
