Bet you added it to the template variable and not the page as I said.
Inside the template, you would need:

	[tag pragma safe_data][/tag]

(Check that call in the docs if it doesn't work.)

That is a good thing, anyway.

Otherwise, you would have to hack your banner tag to add

	{ safe_data => $opt->{safe_data} }

as an additional argument to the tag_data calls there. Then call
[banner safe-data=1 ....] as well. That is probably the best way
to go anyway....
