Display Source Code - With Formatting

[dmk]

Hi Again,

I am reading a document into a page and then displaying it as source code (this is for an assignment.)

I feel that the output that I am getting is a little hard to read, and want to go beyond the scope of the assignment. I want to add formatting (just like what the [ CODE ] tags on this forum does.

Does anyone know of a simple to implement API for ASP.NET that will allow me to implement this using the method of input below?

<script language="C#" runat="server">
        void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            bool blnEmpty = (Request.QueryString["page"] == null || Request.QueryString["page"].Length == 0);
            if(!blnEmpty){
                string strDocument = Request.QueryString["page"];
 
                lblDocumentName.Text = strDocument;
 
                string strPath = Server.MapPath(strDocument);
 
                string strSourceCode = "";
 
                try 
                {
                    strSourceCode = "";
                    // Create an instance of StreamReader to read from a file.
                    // The using statement also closes the StreamReader.
                    using (System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader(strPath)) 
                    {
                        string line;
                        // Read and display lines from the file until the end of 
                        // the file is reached.
                        while ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null) 
                        {
                            strSourceCode += line.Replace("<", "&lt;").Replace(">", "&gt;") + "<br/>";
                        }
 
                        //strSourceCode = strSourceCode.Replace("<", "&lt;").Replace(">", "&gt;");
                        lblSourceCode.Text = "<pre>" + strSourceCode + "</pre>";
                    }
                }
                catch (Exception ex) 
                {
                    // Let the user know what went wrong.
                    lblSourceCode.Text = "The Document could not be read:<br/>";
                    lblSourceCode.Text += ex.Message;
                }
            } else {
                lblDocumentName.Text = "None";
                lblSourceCode.Text = "No Document Specified.";
            }
        }
</script>

I'm using the CSS below to make sure that the wrapping works as expected:

pre {
        white-space: pre-wrap;       /* css-3 */
        white-space: -moz-pre-wrap !important;  /* Mozilla, since 1999 */
        white-space: -pre-wrap;      /* Opera 4-6 */
        white-space: -o-pre-wrap;    /* Opera 7 */
        word-wrap: break-word;       /* Internet Explorer 5.5+ */
    }

Thanks

Way to go man, I know that you will ace this assignment with a little help from Microsoft:
ASP.NET Configuration API

If only I had thought to go beyond scope on my assignments instead of wasting time chasing girls and playing sports, then I might not have ended as a lowly web developer. My advice study hard and take up karate to fend off those jocks.

Only reason I want to do this is because I have a job for after uni already... I just don't know the language (C#) that they want me to work with ;) might as well get the learning out of the way now.

Thanks for the help, not really what I was looking for... i've only got a couple of weeks for the assignment, and I'm not going THAT far out of my way ;)
