title: symfony2 twig html tags
body: <p>I'm fairly new with twig, so I'm having a little trouble.
  I pass a variable to my twig template in Symfony2 </p>
  
  <pre><code>  &lt;p&gt;{{ var.description|length &gt; 100 ? var.description|slice(0, 100) ~ '...' : var.description }}&lt;/p&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>this variable contains html tags that were showing up so I stripped them</p>
  
  <pre><code>  &lt;p&gt;{{ var.description|striptags|length &gt; 100 ? var.description|striptags|slice(0, 100) ~ '...' : var.description|striptags }}&lt;/p&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But then the links and features don't work.  Is there a way to just output the html from the variable in a functional way?</p>
