Just wondering how I can read an XML file from JavaScript in Xamarin Studio like below:

<script ttype="text/javascript">

xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.open("GET","books.xml",false);
xmlhttp.send();
xmlDoc=xmlhttp.responseXML;

txt=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("title"[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
document.write(txt);
</script>

I got the solution without using JavaScript. Here is the code for anyone who may need it

public class MainActivity : Activity
{
protected override void OnCreate (Bundle bundle)
{
base.OnCreate (bundle);
SetContentView (Resource.Layout.Main);

WebView webView = FindViewById<WebView>(Resource.Id.WebView);
// Read the XML file placed in the Assets folder
string XMLcontent = "";
string line;
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader (Assets.Open ("note.xml"))
{
while ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
{
XMLcontent += line + "</br>";
}

}

webView.LoadData(XMLcontent, "text/html", "UTF-8";
}
}
