André,

I didn't know it could work in local mode, thanks! I tested and for 
me it works both local and remote with Opera AND FF. I'm using this 
slightly different routine:

...
 else if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
  function XMLHttpRequestCallback() {
   if (xmlRequest.readyState == 4) {
//  if (xmlRequest.status == 200) {
    addDoc(evt,xmlRequest.responseXML.documentElement);
//  }
   }
  }
  var xmlRequest = null;
  xmlRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
  xmlRequest.overrideMimeType("text/xml");
  xmlRequest.open("GET",url,true);
  xmlRequest.onreadystatechange = XMLHttpRequestCallback;
  xmlRequest.send(null);
 }
}
function addDoc(evt,node) {
 var newdoc = node;
 while (newdoc != null && newdoc.nodeName != "svg") {
  newdoc = newdoc.nextSibling;
 }
 if (newdoc == null) {
  alert("Cannot find <svg> element in " + node.parent.nodeName);
  return;
 }
 myDestination.appendChild(newdoc);
}

I only tested with Opera 9.24 and FF 2.0.0.10

The last parameter of:
document.getElementById(myDestination).appendChild(document.importNode
(myReq.responseXML.documentElement,true));

is omitted, but I'm not sure that is what makes it happen. Apart from 
that difference, one other I can see is "document.importNode"

Domenico
