The WebBrowser instance is no longer valid.
InvalidOperationException

A reference to the underlying native WebBrowser could not be retrieved.
SecurityException

Setting the source property causes WebBrowser to navigate to the document specified by the Uri. If the Uri is null, a blank document is displayed ("about:blank").

The following example shows how to configure WebBrowser to navigate to an HTML document by using markup only.
