Viewing XML Document in Browser in 9.0

Post by wildfreddie »

Help!

I cannot view a loaded XML document in a browser by using the menu to go to Document -> XML Document -> View in browser. I get a white dialog box that says "Opening file in the running Oxygen XML Editor", and of course nothing loaded in a browser.

If drag the XML file to a browser window, I get the dialog option box to Open, Run, or Cancel. I choose Open and the document opens in the Oxygen editor. I get the same results using the browser File->Open menu, or by putting the file URI in the browser address window.

Hello,

Internet Explorer opens XML files with the application associated with the XML Document type in Windows which is oXygen if you selected the XML file association in the oXygen installer. Open Windows Explorer and go to Tools -> Folder Options -> File Types -> XML and set Internet Explorer instead of oXygen with the Change button.

Sorin

I see now, it sets up a circular reference.

Thanks.
