Angular: ng-bind-html filters out ng-click?

I have some html data that I'm loading in from a json file.

I am displaying this html data by using ngSanitize in my app and using ng-bind-html.

Now I would like to convert any links in the json blob from the standard

<a href="some_link">link</a>

to:

<a ng-click="GotoLink('some_link','_system')">link</a>.

So I'm doing some regExp on the json file to convert the links, but for some reason however ng-bind-html is filtering out the ng-click in it's output, and I can't figure out why. Is it supposed to do this, and if so is it possible to disable this behavior?

Check out this jsFiddle for a demonstration: http://jsfiddle.net/7k8xJ/1/

Any ideas?

Ok, so the issue is that it isn't compiling the html you include (angular isn't parsing it to find directives and whatnot). Can't think of a way to make it to compile from within the controller, but you could create a directive that includes the content, and compiles it.

So you would change

<p ng-bind-html="name"></p>

<p compile="name"></p>

And then for the js:

var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['ngSanitize']);
angular.module('myApp')
.directive('compile', ['$compile', function ($compile) {
  return function(scope, element, attrs) {
    scope.$watch(
      function(scope) {
        return scope.$eval(attrs.compile);
      },
      function(value) {
        element.html(value);
        $compile(element.contents())(scope);
      }
   )};
  }]).controller('MyCtrl', function($scope) {
    var str = 'hello http://www.cnn.com';
    var urlRegEx = /((([A-Za-z]{3,9}:(?:\/\/)?)(?:[\-;:&=\+\$,\w]+@)?[A-Za-z0-9\.\-]+|(?:www\.|[\-;:&=\+\$,\w]+@)[A-Za-z0-9\.\-]+)((?:\/[\+~%\/\.\w\-]*)?\??(?:[\-\+=&;%@\.\w]*)#?(?:[\.\!\/\\\w]*))?)/g;
    result = str.replace(urlRegEx, "<a ng-click=\"GotoLink('$1',\'_system\')\">$1</a>");
    $scope.GotoLink = function() { alert(); }
    $scope.name = result;
});

Angular 1.2.12: http://jsfiddle.net/7k8xJ/4/

Angular 1.4.3: http://jsfiddle.net/5g6z58yy/ (same code as before, but some people were saying it doesn't work on 1.4.*)

Explicitly Trusting HTML With $sce When you want Angular to render model data as HTML with no questions asked, the $sce service is what you’ll need. $sce is the Strict Contextual Escaping service – a fancy name for a service that can wrap an HTML string with an object that tells the rest of Angular the HTML is trusted to render anywhere.

In the following version of the controller, the code asks for the $sce service and uses the service to transform the array of links into an array of trusted HTML objects using $sce.trustAsHtml.

app.controller('XYZController', function ($scope, $sce) {

$sce.trustAsHtml("<table><tr><td><a onclick='DeleteTaskType();' href='#workplan'>Delete</a></td></tr></table>");
