am currently trying to port my laravel 4 application to laravel 5 . i have added "illuminate/html": "5.*"
to composer and also the facade and service providers to config. i was using the following syntax to link to my css files
{{ HTML::style('css/bootstrap.min.css') }}
{{ HTML::style('css/style.css') }}
but in laravel 5 , my views output is all broken , with the page displaying like the below screenshot .
what could i be missing here ? is there any changes to the blade syntax in laravel 5 ?
found the answer here on this thread and here .
on the second thread Taylor Otwell gives the answer himself . In laravel 5 , the laravel 4 default syntax {{ code }}
, will escape the data output . if you want unescaped html data, you have to use the new syntax
{!! HTML::style('css/style.css') !!}
if you want to revert to previous syntax you can use
Blade::setRawTags('{{', '}}');
<link href="{{ asset("assets/css/style.css") }}" rel="stylesheet">
Change your code to the below
{!! Html::style( asset('css/bootstrap.min.css')) !!}
{!! Html::style( asset('css/style.css')) !!}
If you want to use plain HTML then you can also use it like this-
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/style.css">
