dangerouslySetInnerHTML? about preact HOT 6 CLOSED

You, sir, are a scholar and a gentleman. :)

from preact.

Now generally available as of 3.2.

This is intentionally not in preact, though it could be added to preact-compat.
You can set innerHTML in a life cycle method like componentDidUpdate or componentDidMount.

Example:

class Foo extends Component {
  componentDidMount() {
    this.base.innerHTML = 'hello';
  }
}

That works client side, but obviously would not work for server side rendering (since componentDidMount() will never run on the server.)

True, very good point. Perhaps that's the selling point of __dangerouslySetInnerHTML then!

@jwalton - just published a prerelease of 3.0 which supports dangerouslySetInnerHTML. On npm as preact-3.0.0-beta1
