You can use IE5 to view an XML document just as you view any HTML page. There are several ways to open an XML document. You can click on a link, type the URL into the address bar, double-click on an XML document in a folder, and so on.

If you point IE5 to an XML document, IE5 will display the document with its root element and child elements expanded. A plus (+) or minus sign (-) to the left of the XML elements can be clicked to expand or collapse the element structure, and if you only want to view the raw XML source, you can select "View Source" from the browser menu.
