displaying ckeditor saved html data from database to normal text in asp.net
<p>I am using ckeditor to write posts and saving that data in sql server 2008.
in database it is saving data in html form.</p>

<p>I want to display data saved in database to a aspx page as a plain text.in database post saved as:         </p>

<pre><code>&lt;p&gt;haskdbn&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;sakaksfb asknzxv&lt;/p&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>In my asp.net page the data have to display as normal form without tags.</p>

<p>I write code behind:    </p>

<pre><code>revolutionEntities obj = new revolutionEntities();
var v = from p in obj.posts orderby p.postedtime select new { p.post1 };
foreach (var item in v)
{
   HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(item.ToString());
}
GridView1.DataSource = v;
GridView1.DataBind();
</code></pre>

<p>but its not decoding. its sghowing the same text as it is in html form</p>
