Trying to read XML stream from browser

[Laila2008]

Hi, I'm writing a String containing XML data to my browser. The XML data is well formed and the page opens up correctly but when I try to read this data from another page I get the following error: '>' is an unexpected token. The expected token is '"' or '''. Line 2, position 63.

Here is the code in the page serving the XML:

Response.Clear( );
Response.ClearC ontent();
Response.ClearH eaders();

Response.Conten tType = "text/xml";
Response.Conten tEncoding = Encoding.UTF8;
String returnXML = "<LIST><ITEM><C ODE>24</CODE></ITEM></LIST>";
Response.Write( returnXML);

When I hit the above page directly there are no issues and the XML is displayed nicely in a tree.



Here is the code from the page trying to read the XML data:

DataSet dataSet = new DataSet();
dataSet.ReadXml ("http://localhost:2593/MyApp/EmitXMLToBrowse r.aspx");
this.GridView1. DataSource = dataSet;
this.GridView1. DataMember = "ITEM";
this.GridView1. DataBind();


thats when I get the following error: '>' is an unexpected token. The expected token is '"' or '''. Line 2, position 63.

Note: if I try to save returnXML to a file and read that file in dataSet.ReadXML , there are no issues.

Any idea what is the issue here?

Thanks

Ok, I know what is causing the error. In the web.config file if I replace
<authenticati on mode="Forms">
<forms name="LOGINFORM " loginUrl="login .aspx" protection="All " timeout="60" />
</authentication>
<authorizatio n>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>

with <authenticati on mode="Windows"/>

it works fine!!!

I do need forms authentication, any idea how to get this to work?

Thanks
