503 (Server Unavailable) WebException when loading local XHTML file
- by kcoppock
Hello! So I'm currently working on an ePub reader application, and I've been reading through a bunch of regular XML files just fine with System.Xml and XmlDocument:
XmlDocument xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
xmldoc.Load(Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "META-INF/container.xml"));
XmlNodeList xnl = xmldoc.GetElementsByTagName("rootfile");
However, now I'm trying to open the XHTML files that contain the actual book text, and they're XHTML files. Now I don't really know the difference between the two, but I'm getting the following error with this code (in the same document, using the same XmlDocument and XmlNodeList variable)
xmldoc.Load(Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "OEBPS/part1.xhtml"));
"WebException was unhandled: The remote server returned an error: (503) Server Unavailable"
It's a local document, so I'm not understanding why it's giving this error? Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)
I've got the full source code here if it helps:

(I know the ePubConstructor.ParseDocument() method is horribly messy, I'm just trying to get it working at the moment before I split it into classes)
