Html markup in Play Framework messages

Question

I am using the internationalization message file in Play. In my messages.en file, I have:

support.msg=Click here to contact <a href="support.html">support</a>

but it prints like

&lt;a href=&quot;support.html&quot;&gt;support&lt;/a&gt;

Is it possible to exit html in the messages.en file so that they are printed as 'as is'

By default, Play! automatically escapes strings used in the view. If you want to output raw text (including HTML), wrap the variable in Html().
