html helper question: Is html helper only available by default (as

html.something()

) in a coldbox view? If I try to use it in my handler I get the message

html

is not available, unless I inject it in the handler. The manual says

There is no special setup needed to use it in a ColdBox application, it’s already baked in. Just reference the object by the

html

prefix and call the desired function within any layout or view.

So I was wondering if I am doing something wrong.

Seems like it's behaving exactly as advertised:

within any layout or view

. It's probably designed as a "view helper", so to me it makes sense it's not available in a handler without injecting it yourself.

yea we inject it to the handler

makes sense, just couldn’t find it in the manual. Maybe I should read two lines extra 🙂
