Hi all,

I'm using the XmlDocument class to create an XML document. I found out that
in .NET there are special classes that they do that job a lot faster,
namelly XmlTextWritter. My problem is that using the XmlTextWritter the
encoding gets messed up.

How do I set the XmlTextWritter's ecncoding to be the same as the one that
the XmlDocument is using?
I've tried this but doesn't work.

System.IO.MemoryStream s = new System.IO.MemoryStream();

XmlTextWriter LWriter = new XmlTextWriter(s, Encoding.Unicode);

Thanks in advance,
Greg

Your problem is not specific enough to provide you with any help. Are you
writing the XML to a MemoryStream and then loading the XmlDocument or
something else?

Hi Dare,

Here is the full picture. I use a component written in C# that builds HTML
pages dynamically and then sends the contents together with some headers
bandled up in a XML document (text only) to an ISAPI via COM. When it
reaches the ISAPI I set the headers and contents of the Response object form
the XML document and send it to the browser.

That XML document is the one that gives me trouble. When I use the
XmlDocument class to create it it works fine. But, when I use the
XmlTextWriter pages in the browser appear to contain some weird caracters.

Thanks,
Greg.
