I have to write a string in XML Doc, which is having all nodes in it.

I have to create and save this XML doc also.

steps are:

*Create xml doc (to some location) (this writes: (?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
*writing string into it. (it contains elements, attrib and values)
*closing document
*save it.

How to do this ?
please reply soon.
thanks

a) We don't do people homework for them
b) You don't say what programming language you are using - if I told you how to do this in COBOL or Perl would that help?
c) Give it a try yourself, and if you get stuck and have a particular problem come back and we might be able to help.

Well which programming language (e.g. C#, Java) and which framework/SDK (e.g. .NET 2.0 or .NET 3.5 or Java 1.5 or Java 1.6) do you want to use?

I am using C# and .Net2.0.

Hi Sam Judson, Martin Honnen

The code I am using is:

XmlTextWriter xmlWRITER = new XmlTextWriter(Server.MapPath("~/common/xml/SegmentXML.xml"), null);
            xmlWRITER.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
            xmlWRITER.Indentation = 4;
            xmlWRITER.WriteStartDocument();
            xmlWRITER.WriteString(Brand1.ToXml()); //ToXml returns XML-String
            xmlWRITER.WriteEndDocument();
            xmlWRITER.Close();


and the error is:
Token Content in state Prolog would result in an invalid XML document.

As result It creates Xml document but it is empty.

The usual approach with Xml(Text)Writer is to write element, attributes, text, comments and it constructs the XML for you.
If you want to write a string of XML and do not want to escape it then you need to use WriteRaw:
It is your responsibility then that you write well-formed markup.
