Also, for IE I would also suggest you instantiate the DOM in this
manner: as the class name you are using in the example will give you a
very old version 3 of the DOM, now that the DOM is installed side-by-
side on windows new releases, there is no longer a single clsid for
the DOM.  The function below will return the most recent version that
the machine has installed.  Also in your type of app make sure the
async property is set to false.



function getXMLDom() {
	// Please use the highest version of XML that is currently installed
on your machine
	var locXML
	try {
		locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.6.0")
	}
	catch(e) {
		try {
			 locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.5.0")
		}
		catch(e) {
			try {
				 locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.4.0")
			}
			catch(e) {
				try {
					 locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.3.0")
				}
				catch(e) {
					try {
						locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.6.0")
					}
					catch(e) {
						try {
							 locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.5.0")
						}
						catch(e) {
							try {
								 locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.4.0")
							}
							catch(e) {
								try {
									 locXML =3D new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0")
								}
								catch(e) {
								}
							}
						}
					}
				}
			}
		}
	}
	locXML.async =3D false
   locXML.validateOnParse =3D true;
   locXML.resolveExternals =3D true;
	locXML.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath");
	if (typeof(locXML) =3D=3D 'undefined') {
		alert('Error: you must have the XML DOM installed')
		return null
	} else {
		return locXML
	}
}
