I am writing a client .NET app and need to generate some reports. I would like to use HTML 5, CSS3 and JavaScript to generate reports that display tabular data and graphics by doing this:[*]Generate a DataSet and save it as XML.[*]Embed the XML data inside a predefined HTML page.[*]Load the HTML page in the default browser.[*]Using jQuery, parse the XML, and generate the necessary HTML elements to show a report.[*]No Web server, just my client app.I have read online that I shouldn't embed XML data inside an HTML page, but this seems to work in the latest versions of all major browsers. My questions are:[*]Any reason why I shouldn't do this?[*]If I shouldn't do this, then do I have any other option to use the power of the local browser to generate reports?
