How to read a file from a URI using StreamReader?
<p>I have a file at a URI that I would like to read using StreamReader. Obviously, this causes a problem since File.OpenText does not support URI paths. The file is a txt file with a bunch of html in it. I have multiple web pages that use this same piece of html, so I have put it in a txt file, and am reading it into the page when the page loads (I can get it to work when I put the file on the file system, but need to put it in a document repository online so that a business user can get to it). I am trying to avoid using an iframe. Is there a way to use StreamReader with URI formats? If not, what other options are there using C# to read in the txt file of html? If this is not optimal, can someone suggest a better approach?</p>
