Title Body

I have the following HtmlHelper method that I want to create a button that does a redirect with JavaScript: public static string JavaScriptButton(this HtmlHelper helper, string value, string action, string controller, object routeValues = null, object htmlAttributes = null) { var a = (new UrlHelper(helper.ViewContext.RequestContext)) .Action(action, controller, routeValues); var builder = new TagBuilder("input"); builder.Attributes.Add("type", "submit"); builder.Attributes.Add("value", value); builder.Attributes.Add("class", "button"); builder.Attributes.Add("onclick", string.Format("javascript:location.href='{0}'", a)); builder.MergeAttributes(new RouteValueDictionary(htmlAttributes)); return MvcHtmlString.Create(builder.ToString(TagRenderMode.SelfClosing)).ToString(); } The problem is that the line that creates the onclick handler is getting escaped by the tagbuilder, the resulting html is: <input class="button" onclick="javascript:location.href=&#39;&#39;" type="submit" value="Return to All Audits" /> Is there anyway I can stop this behaviour?
