Class RadzenMarkdown
A markdown rendering component that parses and displays Markdown syntax as formatted HTML. RadzenMarkdown converts Markdown text (headings, lists, links, code blocks, etc.) into rich HTML content with security features. Parses CommonMark-compliant markdown and renders it as HTML. Ideal for documentation, blog posts, README files, or any content authored in Markdown format. Features full support for standard Markdown syntax (headings, bold, italic, lists, links, images, code, blockquotes, tables), optional HTML tag support within markdown with security filtering, dangerous tag filtering (script, iframe, object) to prevent XSS attacks, automatic anchor link creation for headings (configurable depth), control over allowed HTML tags and attributes, and flexible input via child content or Text property. Parses markdown and renders it as Blazor components/HTML for display. Use AllowHtml = false to strictly render only Markdown syntax without any HTML pass-through.

Properties
AllowHtml
Gets or sets whether HTML tags within the markdown are rendered or escaped. When true (default), safe HTML tags are allowed. Dangerous tags (script, iframe, style, object) are always filtered. When false, all HTML is treated as plain text and displayed literally.

[Parameter]
public bool AllowHtml { get; set; }
Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| bool |
|
AllowedHtmlAttributes
Gets or sets a whitelist of HTML attributes permitted on HTML tags when AllowHtml is true. If set, only these attributes are rendered; others are stripped. If not set, uses a default list of safe attributes.
Declaration
[Parameter]
public IEnumerable<string>? AllowedHtmlAttributes { get; set; }
Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| IEnumerable<string> | The allowed HTML attribute names, or null to use the default safe attribute list. |
AllowedHtmlTags
Gets or sets a whitelist of HTML tags permitted in the markdown when AllowHtml is true. If set, only these tags will be rendered; others are stripped. If not set, uses a default list of safe tags.

Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| IEnumerable<string> | The allowed HTML tag names, or null to use the default safe tag list. |
AutoLinkHeadingDepth
Gets or sets the maximum heading level (1-6) for which to automatically generate anchor links. For example, setting to 3 creates anchors for h1, h2, and h3 headings. Set to 0 to disable auto-linking. Auto-links enable table of contents navigation.
Declaration
[Parameter]

Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| int | The maximum heading depth for auto-linking (0-6). Default is 0 (disabled). |

Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| RenderFragment | The markdown content render fragment. |
