Viewing raw XML from WCF Data Service in Firefox and Chrome


I have a WCF Data Service that exposes data from a database. When I access this service in Internet Explorer, I get the raw XML as a response (after turning off feed reading view). When I access this service in Firefox, Firefox shows it as an RSS feed. When I access this service in Chrome, it prompts me to save the file.

  1. Is there a way to disable feed reading view in Firefox as there is in Internet Explorer?

  2. Can I set Chrome view the raw XML instead of trying to download it as a file?


Solution

  • It appears in newer versions of Chrome this is no longer an issue. I have not tested Firefox recently.
