You might find some clues here - this is taken from Mike Alsup's most excellent taconite plugin (http://www.malsup.com/jquery/taconite/):
if (typeof xml == 'string') xml = $.taconite.convert(xml); // convert string to xml document $.taconite.convert = function(s) { var doc; $.taconite.log('attempting string to document conversion'); try { if (window.ActiveXObject) { doc = new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLDOM'); doc.async = 'false'; doc.loadXML(s); } else { var parser = new DOMParser(); doc = parser.parseFromString(s, 'text/xml'); } } catch(e) { if (window.console && window.console.error) window.console.error('[taconite] ERROR parsing XML string for conversion: ' + e); throw e; } var ok = doc && doc.documentElement && doc.documentElement.tagName != 'parsererror'; $.taconite.log('conversion ', ok ? 'successful!' : 'FAILED'); return doc; }; Dmitrii wrote: > > Anyone? Help! :) > > Dmitrii 'Mamut' Dimandt wrote: >> Yup. This works under FF and Opera. Under IE this fails.
