You might need XPath and selectSingleNode or selectNodes together with
namespaces e.g. (JScript syntax)
  xmlDoc.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath")
  xmlDoc.setProperty("SelectionNamespaces",
"xmlns:atom='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'")
  var nodeList = xmlDoc.selectNodes("//atom:content")
as those elements are in the Atom namespace.
