I need the text of a link wrapped with <span> as in:
<a href="/foo.html"><span>Edit Group</span></a>
Can I do that with Html.ActionLink? This doesn't work:
<%=Html.ActionLink("<span>Edit Group</span>", "Edit", New With {.id = "bar"})%>
It just HTML encodes the < and > as < and >.
Is there a simple solution, or should I build the links by hand with Url.Action?
This is for use with jQuery-UI Tabs. Tab labels need to be wrapped in <span> to get animation when AJAX content is loading.
