Browsing XML Documents in Internet Explorer 5

You can use Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5 to view XML documents in the browser just as you would view HTML pages. There are several ways to navigate to an XML document on a Web site. You can follow a link to that document, type the URL of the XML document into the address bar, select an XML document from your history or favorites, double-click an XML document from the desktop, and so on. To view the XML source, select View Source from the File menu.
