XMl chunk parsing problem in Javascript for IE6 or IE7

1 New Member
Hello Everyone,

This is my first post here.

I am trying to parse a xml chunk returned by server as a response of ajax type request in this way:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2.  
  3. // code for IE
  4.     if (window.ActiveXObject)
  5.       {
  6.           var doc=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
  7.           doc.async="false";
  8.           doc.loadXML(exactResponse);
  9.       }
  10.     // code for Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, etc.
  11.     else
  12.       {
  13.           var parser=new DOMParser();        
  14.           var doc=parser.parseFromString(exactResponse,"text/xml");
  15.       }
  16.  
The problem is that it is not working in IE6 or IE7.
Can anyone tell me to get around this problem?
I need it badly:(

Best regards,

Babu

If it's valid XML, it should be returned in the responseXML property.

To parse XML strings, see this example.

Hi, This is a newbie's question. I want to preload 4 images and only when all 4 images has been loaded into browser's cache, I want to start a slideshow() function. If images are not completed loaded into cache, the slideshow doesn't look very nice. I am not sure how/when to call the slideshow() function to make sure it starts after the preload has been completed.

Hi there; I have the following problem.

When the parsing scripts I tried reach this node, it fails with a message such as...

Hello Everyone For a project I am working on, I need to retrieve links from html documents. The easy part is to obtain 'plain' links like <A HREF="http://site/path/document">, but when those links are javascript'ized, the only robust solution needs to load the javascript and dom document representation in the same way that browsers do. For example, links in the form: <A HREF="javascript:function_declared_before("arguments"));>

Hello everyone, I understand that XML can be parsed using JavaScript using the XML Document object. However, it is possible to parse XHTML using JavaScript? I currently listen for DOMMutation events, when the events occur I access the node which was inserted or removed (event.target). There is only ever about 5 lines of XHTML nested in the node, however it would be silly for me to parse it manually using methods like hasChildNodes...

Hi... I've got a couple of test apps that I use to parse/test different html webpages. However, I'm now looking at how to parse a given site/page that uses javascript calls to dynamically create/display the resulting HTML. I can see the HTML is the Browser page if I manually select the btn that invokes the javascript function, but I have no idea how to create an app that can effectively parse the page.

The closer you want to get to "perfect" at finding URLs expressed in JS, the closer you'll get to rewriting a JS interpreter.
