[Moo] how to load XML locally like jquery?

[stratboy]

Hi! I've just found (and tested) that with jquery I can load and parse
an xml document locally. I mean, I can do it without publish the files
to a server. So, for example, I can make a local site to be burn on
and loaded from a cd-rom (and that's exaclty what in fact I've got to
do). I think this is not possible with mootools, since Request doesn't
work locally. Am I wrong? Hence, is there a way to do the same thing
as jquery?
