Displaying/Rendering XML in EXTJS

I want to display a XML which will be fetched from backend in a EXT JS panel and window. I tried creating a new window and opening a new window and assigning the document type but it's not getting properly formatted liek it does when we open in IE. Also is there a way I can open it in a EXT JS window instead of a browser window. My XML is dynamic which could be different XML (with different root node) everytime. Here is what I tried so far with no luck

myXmlWindow = window.open('', 'FullView', 'toolbar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes');
myXmlWindow.document.write("<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"resources/XMLDisplay.css\" type=\"text/css\"><center><table class=\"data\"><tr><th>" + xmlString + "</td></tr></table></center>");

Can anyone help me with this. All I need to do is display XML just like below screen shot in IE

Sample XML viewed in IE

Here is my XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Record>
  <SYS_ID>238</SYS_ID>
  <SYS_DSC>This is a test XML</SYS_DSC>
  <GTMU_ID>6</GTMU_ID>
  <LOC_ID>3760</LOC_ID>
  <SLS_UNIT_ID>0090008924</SLS_UNIT_ID>
  <RLTNSHP_TYP_CDV>15</RLTNSHP_TYP_CDV>
  <RLTNSHP_TYP_NM>This is a test XML</RLTNSHP_TYP_NM>
  <RLTNSHP_STRT_DT>1985-12-29T00:00:00-06:00</RLTNSHP_STRT_DT>
  <RLTNSHP_END_DT>9999-12-31T00:00:00-06:00</RLTNSHP_END_DT>
</Record>

If I do below as suggested by Yellen,

var w= window.open('data:text/xml,'+encodeURI(xmlString));

I am getting below error

The trick is to enclose your XML in tags something like this

Not exactly how I wanted but sort of a workaround

Try this fiddle - https://fiddle.sencha.com/#fiddle/lld

You can simply call a window.open() with the parameter ('data:text/xml,' + xmlText), you can also pass other window options as you want. This will just open a new tab with the xml content.

Try to use an iframe. ExtJS provides an extension for this with Ext.ux.IFrame you should be able to nest your xml into an Ext.Window.

var xmlText = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><Employee><Id>22</Id></Employee>';

xmlText = encodeURI(xmlText);

var myWindow = Ext.create("Ext.window.Window", {
    width: 800,
    height: 600,
    layout: "fit",
    items: [Ext.create("Ext.ux.IFrame", {
        src: 'data:text/xml,' + xmlText
    })]
});

myWindow.show();
