Nic,

If I have xml string:

<tag1>
  text1
  <tag2> text2 </tag2>
  <tag2> text3 </tag2>
</tag1>

I want to display it as it shown in the browser. But if I output this xml
string to the browser, I will get:
text1text2text3

Is this clear to you? Please help. Thanks.

Jian

I'm not sure what you mean by xml tags preserved. IE does some
strange things with XML, it tries to display the document as a DOM.

But I'm not sure if that's the behaviour you're after...

If you specified the content type as text/plain you'd get just the
plain text of the XML but I presume that's not what you want.
