i get some HTML returned from an external source and set to a simple string. However when i set the DocumentText param of the control nothing gets changed. This seems to be a common issue, and ive tried the results from previous posts to no avail.

Also the .show() method doesnt seem to pop the window up? In the code below it creates a new window, sets some params and tried to open the browser.

private void createWindow(String text)
    {
        if (text == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("Nothing has been returned, possible MBean Failure");
        Window a = new Window();
        a.Title = "Output";
        RichTextBox rtb = new RichTextBox();
        rtb.FontSize = 12;
        rtb.Background = new SolidColorBrush((Color)ColorConverter.ConvertFromString("#639FBE"));
        rtb.IsReadOnly = true;
        rtb.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility = ScrollBarVisibility.Auto;
        rtb.VerticalScrollBarVisibility = ScrollBarVisibility.Auto;
        rtb.Margin = new Thickness(15);
        Grid myGrid = new Grid();
        a.Content = myGrid;
        myGrid.Children.Add(rtb);
        rtb.AppendText(text);   
        a.Height = myGrid.Height;
        a.Width = myGrid.Width;

        if (text == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("Nothing has been returned,    possible Failure");
        browser.Navigate("abount:blank");
        HtmlDocument doc = browser.Document;
        browser.Document.OpenNew(true);
        doc.Write("<HTML>" + text + "</HTML>");
        browser.DocumentText = doc.ToString();


        browser.Show();



      //  a.ShowDialog();


    }

    1. Your HTML looks malformed. <body> tags aren’t optional
    2. A WebBrowser is a control that needs to be added to a form — it is not itself a form.
