Meteor: How to return HTML in a global helper
<p>I have the the following helper which works fine:</p>

<pre><code>UI.registerHelper('shortIt', function(stringToShorten, maxCharsAmount){
  if(stringToShorten.length &gt; maxCharsAmount){
    return stringToShorten.substring(0, maxCharsAmount) + ' ...';
  }
  return stringToShorten;
});
</code></pre>

<p>It's used like this:</p>

<pre><code>{{#each newsEventsData}}
...
     &lt;p class="text-muted"&gt; {{shortIt this.description 150}} &lt;a href="{{pathFor route = 'newsAndEventsPage'}}" 
    class="textlink"&gt;read more &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

...
{{/each}}
</code></pre>

<p><code>newsEventsData</code>is just a local helper that returns all documents in the collection.</p>

<p>The problem: <code>description</code>is a string with HTML tags as I'm using the <strong>summernote</strong> text editor. This is how a json looks like:</p>

<pre><code>{
    "_id" : "EEuDg6DBNHrmAhWqa",
    "title" : "A Dummy News Edited",
    "description" : "\n\t\t            \t\tLorem &lt;b&gt;ipsum&lt;/b&gt; dicta sunt explicabo. &lt;i&gt;Nemo enim ipsam voluptatem quia voluptas sit aspernatur aut odit aut Management\n\t\t            \t&lt;/i&gt;",
    "type" : "news",
    "lastmodifiedAt" : "Mon, 09 May 2016 12:17:33",
    "publishedAt" : "Mon, 09 May 2016 12:17:33",
    "publishedRawFormat" : ISODate("2016-05-09T10:17:33.007Z"),
    "keywords" : [ 
        ""
    ],
    "modifiedAt" : "Mon, 09 May 2016 05:03:05"
}
</code></pre>

<p>If I used <code>{{{description}}}</code> on the other hand, I couldn't user the <code>shortIt</code> helper anymore. How to solve this dilemma?</p>
