Display XML in AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser

In my recent blog, AxShDocVw, SHDocVw, mshtml References, I showed how to set up a VS.NET project to use the AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser control.

I was recently asked how to display formatted XML in this control. Here's just one way. I'm sure you can find ways to improve upon it.

 DisplayXml (
     AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser browser,
     XmlDocument document)
 {
         filnam = Environment.GetFolderPath(
         Environment.SpecialFolder.InternetCache)
         + "//" + document.GetHashCode().ToString();

       (File.Exists(filnam))
     File.Delete(filnam);

      StreamWriter file = File.CreateText(filnam);

    text = document.OuterXml.Replace("utf-16","utf-8");

   file.Write(text);
   file.Close();
   file = ;

       refmissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
   browser.Navigate(filnam, ref refmissing,
         ref refmissing, ref refmissing, ref refmissing);
 }

This can be used when the control has not yet been initialized and does not yet have a body or DOM.
