Is it possible to return an unencoded/unescaped/raw string from a MVC 3 Razor HtmlHelper?

I have created an HtmlHelper Extension method which returns an encoded string, I have tried returning IHtmlString and MvcHtmlString but cannot get the string unencoded/unescaped?

I am trying to reduce the code, 开发者_运维知识库so I dont need Html.Raw() in this particular instance.

UPDATE

This is an interesting one. I am new to Razor, so added the Method I wanted to a WebViewPage base class, which obviously didnt work, then created the Method in an HtmlHelperExtension class.

In the view I had @MyMethod() which was working and rendering the un-encoded html.

I only noticed that I had ommited the "Html." bit after seeing Darin Dimitrov's answer, so have added the Html. and removed the method from the WebViewPage class, which fixes the existing HtmlHelper I had.

IHtmlString should do the job:

public static class HtmlExtensions
{
    public static IHtmlString Foo(this HtmlHelper html)
    {
        return MvcHtmlString.Create("<a href=\"http://www.google.com\">Google</a>");
    }
}

and in your razor view:

@Html.Foo()

would produce in the resulting html:

<a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a>

which is unencoded.
