I am successfully parsing an XML document using the javascript below. I am
running into trouble, however, when I try to parse an xml file that doesn't
exist in the same directory as the calling page. See inline comments below.
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
function loadXML(xmlFile){
xmlDoc.async="false";
xmlDoc.onreadystatechange=verify;
xmlDoc.load(xmlFile);
xmlObj=xmlDoc.documentElement;
}
..
/* This line works */
var xmlFile="menu.xml";
/* This line doesn't work & throws js error */
var xmlFile="C:\test\menu.xml";
/* This line doesn't work, but doesn't throw any js error, either */
var xmlFile="C:/\test/\menu.xml";
..
loadXML(xmlFile);
