Loading XML document as a string from Javascript variable

[lakshmikant panchal]

I am trying to load XML document in the browser from a JavaScript variable. The
reason is when I create XML document from a Database I don't want to store it
on a disk and then load from a disk, I just want to pass it to a browser as a
string/variable.

Well, I know how to do it in IE: by using xmlDoc.loadXML method like in example
below

var xmlStr = "<CAT><CD><TITLE>Empire</TITLE><ARTIST>Bob
Dylan</ARTIST></CD><CD><TITLE>Hide</TITLE><ARTIST>Bonnie</ARTIST></CD></CAT>";
xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.onreadystatechange = tmp;
xmlDoc.loadXML(xmlStr);

function tmp()
{
if (xmlDoc.readyState == 4) generateFromXML();
}

function generateFromXML()
{
// processing code
// ...
}

In Netscape 6 I use:

var xmlStr = "<CAT><CD><TITLE>Empire</TITLE><ARTIST>Bob
Dylan</ARTIST></CD><CD><TITLE>Hide</TITLE><ARTIST>Bonnie</ARTIST></CD></CAT>";
xmlDoc = document.implementation.createDocument("", "", null);
xmlDoc.onload = generateFromXML;
xmlDoc.loadXML(xmlStr);

function generateFromXML()
{
// processing code
// ...
}

Well, xmlDoc.loadXML(xmlStr) doesn't work.

Does anybody know how to do the same thing in Netscape 6?
