Hi,

As you can see in Above Text Input Control(View Mode), The data is coming in HTML text format inside a DIV tag but I want normal text data.

And mainly we the field should be able to switch Modes from view to edit so that we can manually edit the text.

How can I achieve this, can anyone help?

    If you display the content with an HTML text control rather than a label, that will hide the HTML markup.

    You can use the Rich Text control in your edit form to allow users to edit the HTML content.

    Hi @timl 

    I tried using that HTML Text But it is not coming in EDIT mode, so that users can update the text manually.

    @BharathDR 

    On your edit form, set the control type to 'edit rich text'. That will allow you to edit the HTML in edit mode.
