How do you load an html file into an XmlDocument?

Hello Andy ,

usually you don`t do this as HTML ISNOT XML
maybe you would bether explain a bity more what you want , cause just
loading a HTML file into a XmlDocument isn`t going to work
however you could just load the HTML data in a XML node in a XML document
and you could etc etc etc etc etc etc

How do you load an html file into an XmlDocument?

If the HTML happens to be XHTML then you should be able to load it into an
XmlDocument just like any normal XML file.

Otherwise the HTML is very unlikely to actually be valid XML, so you won't
be able to load it at all.

Why exactly do you want to be able to do that?

Andy,

Make a string of it and put it in one element.

Consider to use http://www.codeplex.com/htmlagilitypack instead, it has
an HtmlDocument to parse and load a HTML document.

Ok. I figured out how to do what I needed and I had to use the WebBrowser
control, but that's ok since I wanted to use it somewhere in the project
anyways.
