You can show your xml file using Javascript

on ShowFile button click call following Javascript function

<script language="Javascript">
function OpenFile()
{
  window.showModalDialog('subDoc.html','dialogWidth:300px; dialogHeight:200px; center:yes');

  return false;
)
}
</script>

The simplest steps are:

Put you XML text inside pre tag;
Replace angular brackets with < and >;
Replace & with &;
PROFIT!

The purpose of the steps show it to re-work XML in text showing XML in HTML, without tags. Some advanced step would be using syntax highlighting, pretty much as CodeProject does. For this purpose, add some text-inline tags (such as span, perhaps with the attribute class) and use CSS styles on the tags and classes.
