Saving XmlDocument object to client computer as a file

[Aranarth]

I am working on a ASP .Net page with a C# back end that displays, and give
the option to save, an XmlDocument object. While displaying the XML in a
litteral was easy, I can't figure out how to allow the user to save the
XmlDocument as a file without creating an XML file on the server. It is
important that the XML file is not created server side.

Any insight to my problem would be most appreciated.

How are you displaying it? Are you sending the XML file as XML file to the
user? In that case he/she can simply save the file from the browser. This is
the only way. Probably you might want to change the HttpResponse.ContentType
property to "text/xml" before sending the output.
