I have managed to make the YYY alert appear by changing the code to if
(document.getElementById("xmlDataIsland").XMLDocument.readyState =3D=3D
4), and I can see the XML data within the data island by including the
following line.
alert(document.getElementById("xmlDataIsland").XMLDocument.xml);

How do I now refer to elements (or nodes) within the XML?
