I think I'm having a dim day and should just go back to bed, but alas, I can
t
do that...
I'm writing a peice of code to create XHTML compliant documents using
System.IO, there's probably an easier way but anyway... my code works fine,
and it saves a file as an XML file. If I load this in IE, I get the xml
code!! (rather than the page it should generate). If I rename the file to
.xhtml, IE wont load it and I get the "choose program/service" dialog.
What am I doing wrong!?
Cheers, Dan.
Here's the generated xhtml..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test XHTML Page</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://links.10026.com/?link=test.css" />
</head>
</html>
---I think you may be simply misunderstanding what IE would do with a file with
an extension of xml. It will load it and parse it as xml. If you try the
same document with an xml extension in firefox you will find it is displayed
as xhtml.
Try the document with an htm extension and it will load into IE perfectly.
If you want to keep it as a file with an xml extension then your going to
have to format it with an xsl stylesheet rather than expect the thml parser
to pick it up.

Cheers John, that makes a lot more sense - can you point me in the direction
of any tutorials on XSLT stylesheets?

Also, there are some good XML standard references in MSDN library, here is
the web link:
