How load html text, rather than html file in WebBrowser

Question

I am currently creating a winforms project and we have returned an html string from some method and now want to load it into the WebBrowser.

I know I can use the

WebBrowser.Document.Write()

to write html text to Webbrowser.

But my production environment doesn't allow me to do that.

The alternative is to try to navigate it to a temporary html file using

WebBrowser.Navigate(@"temp file location")

What I'm asking is:

For security reasons, redundant temporary files are not allowed in production environment.

Is there any way to skip the step of creating a temporary file?

Trying to find a way to implement it using Navigate.

You can set the DocumentText property of the WebBrowser control to a string.

How have they restricted webBrowser.Document.Write() in production?

Can you access webBrowser.DocumentText = html;?

Also you could try:

string html = "Your HTML Here";
string dataUrl = "data:text/html;charset=utf-8," + Uri.EscapeDataString(html);
webBrowser.Navigate(dataUrl);
