[jelly] body as unescaped xml

[Wannheden, Knut]

Hi,

I was surprised when I noticed that the following two scipts snippets don't
produce the same result:

        <foo/>

and:

        <j:set var="bar">
         <foo/>
        </j:set>
        ${bar}

The first one produces something like "<foo></foo>" whereas the second
produces something like "&lt;foo&gt;&lt;/foo&gt;".  I'm sure there's a good
reason for this I can't seem to think of... can someone explain it to me?
Also, is there another way to achieve what I'm trying to do?

TIA,
