Python code passing html code to html file
html file receives the code in variable name load1.
<div id="load" >
{{ load1 }}
</div>
on the browser it displays like this
looking at the actual html file.... I see this.
this bracket "<" ">" is showing as < and >, etc
how can I actually see a table not the html code as the final outcome?

Flask, by default, protects any HTML in your variables. You need to turn off autoescaping with the {% autoescape xxx %} command.
Here's the instructions:

CodePudding user response：
It is due to Autoescaping, it is the concept of automatically escaping special characters for you. Special characters in the sense of HTML (or XML, and thus XHTML) are &, >, <, " as well as '.
There are three ways to accomplish that:
In the Python code, wrap the HTML string in a Markup object before passing it to the template. This is in general the recommended way.
Inside the template, use the |safe filter to explicitly mark a string as safe HTML ({{ myvariable|safe }})
Temporarily disable the autoescape system altogether.
To disable the autoescape system in templates, you can use the {% autoescape %} block:
{% autoescape false %}
<p>autoescaping is disabled here
<p>{{ will_not_be_escaped }}
{% endautoescape %}
