reading html file and display in CKEditor

I am currently using CKEditor for my project to read and display the content of a html file.

However, instead of getting the content of the file, all I get is a string: < html > display in the editor.

But if I write the content directly to the page using response.write, then all the content of the file is displayed correctly.

this is the code snippet I used to read the file:

    strPathToConvert = Server.MapPath("~/convert/");
    object filetosave = strPathToConvert + "paper.htm";
    StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(filetosave.ToString());
    string content = "";
    while ((content = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
    {
        if ((content == "") || (content == " "))
        { continue; }
        CKEditor1.Text = content;
        //Response.Write(content);
    }

Can anybody help me to solve this problem? Many Thanks.

You are in a while loop and you are overwriting the contents of CKEditor every time since you use = instead of +=. Your loops should be:

StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(filetosave.ToString());
string content = "";
while ((content = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
{
    if ((content == "") || (content == " "))
    { continue; }
    CKEditor1.Text += content;
    //Response.Write(content);
}

a better way would probably be to use

string content;
string line;
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(filetosave.ToString())
{
    while ((line= reader.ReadLine()) != null) 
    {
        content += line;
    }
}
CKEditor1.Text = content;
