UnFriendly URL from XHTML-property

We have some xhtml-property where users add links to other pages on the same site with the built in tiny-MCE editor. The problem we have is that EPiServer is writing out the unfriendly version of the url to the page (for example; http://wwwtest.company.se/link/1789998ab7954e2e9ad8f6120b348982.aspx?id=16054&epslanguage=sv).

This takes the visitor to first a 301-page and then to the friendly version of the url but with id and language parameters.

Are there any way to get the xhtml-property to write out the friendly version of url?

You are most certainly using @Html.Raw(Model.MainBody), instead you should use @Html.PropertyFor(x => Model.MainBody)

cheers!

Neary true Marcus, I have a helperfunction

@helper NavigationItemTemplate(string header, XhtmlString content) {

<div>

@if (header != null && content != null)

{

<h3>@header</h3>

@content

}

</div>

}

And when writing @content it does this.
Using ProprtyFor fix this

There is another solution to this problem that we find and I write it here so others can use it.

There are places where you can't/don't want to use PropertyFor, for example in the footer of the page or in a more advanced menu. In that case you can use @Html.XhtmlString(content) (Where content is XHTML-string) instead of just @content and that will make EPiServer to write out friendly url instead of unFriendly.

Thanks to Magnus Forsberg at Active Solution who showed me that
