Displaying HTML Markup

HtmlHost for Silverlight supports displaying HTML markup. You set the C1HtmlHost.SourceHtml property to HTML markup that will be translated at run time; for example see the steps below.

At Design Time

To set the C1HtmlHost.SourceHtml property, complete the following steps:

Click the C1HtmlHost control once to select it.
Navigate to the Properties window and locate the SourceHtml item.
Enter text in the text box next to the SourceHtml item; for example, enter "This is <b>HTML</b> hosted in a Browser!".

In XAML

For example, to set the C1HtmlHost.SourceHtml property add SourceHtml to the <c1:C1HtmlHost> tag so that it appears similar to the following:

XAML	Copy Code
<c1ext:C1HtmlHost Name="c1HtmlHost1" SourceHtml="This is <b>HTML</b> hosted in a Browser!"/>

In Code

For example, to set the C1HtmlHost.SourceHtml property, add the following code to your project:

Visual Basic	Copy Code
Me.C1HtmlHost1.SourceHtml="This is <b>HTML</b> hosted in a Browser!"

C#	Copy Code
this.C1HtmlHost1.SourceHtml="This is <b>HTML</b> hosted in a Browser!";

What You've Accomplished

The C1HtmlHost control will now display HTML text at run time. Note that in the markup above the "<" and ">" were used for the "<" and ">" symbols. So, for example a tag to make the text bold, which would normally appear like "<b>" is written as "<b>".
