open dhtmlx forum
dhtmlX Grid with links

Hello.

When I load the data from server-side XML, my hyperlinks are showing up as plaintext HTML rather than a properly embedded link.

So <a href='blah'>TEST</a> shows up instead of just a link with the text TEST.

Which column types you are using? Some column types ( as edtxt, rotxt, txtxt ) will show data as text  only. 
If you are using common column types ( ro, ed, txt, etc. ) the data must be rendered as HTML. 

While loading data from XML source - it need to be escaped or stored in CDATA section to not corrupt XML file. 
     <cell><![CDATA[  <a href="http://some.html">Some</a> ]]></cell>

If issue still occurs for you - please provide a sample of problematic XML data.
