Your tip works ... I tried changing "HTML.escape(x)" "x | html" but it isn't working everywhere. I have, for example, some places where I have: <td>[% HTML.escape(b.affiliations.0) || " " %]</td> but changing it to: <td>[% b.affiliations.0 | html || " " %]</td> or <td>[% (b.affiliations.0 | html) || " " %]</td> does not work; I get a parse error in both cases. I could just go back to HTML.escape() and in this case I have no need for the html_line_break ... but if I ever needed both the   thing as well as the line break thing, how could that be done?
