XML to String

[Nandhini Sridharan]

Hi,

I am working in Websphere commerce environment. I am creating a DOM document which is an xml. I am doing this in a jsp. So when I access this jsp, the created xml should be printed on the page. Now I created the xml and stored it in a separate file. I would like to print that xml in a browser when that particular view is requested. Can you pls help me out on how can I print that out in the browser when that particular jsp (view) is requested?

Thank you.

I need to finish this task bfr tomorrow. So can someone pls help me out with this one?

If you want the XML AS-IS, the easiest is put it in an editbox, and make it scrollable and read only. In this way, your browser would not do anything about it.

If the xml is in a string reference, just use the JSP's writer out to print it on the jsp.

String xmlString="<XML_Root>...<XML_Root>"
out.print(xmlString);

Sorry, Srivatsa Katta

I don't think your way will work, all xml tags will be gone by browser's decision. The page seen by client will be a total mess.

Try it!

I think all browsers know as how to deal with XML and present the user a tree like structure of the xml.

It may be helpful to send the correct Content-Type header for this.
