Hi Andrei,
You need to check that responseXML is not empty. If the MIME type of the
response is not text/xml then the content will be in responseText.
HTH.

John Jameson.

Subject: What XMLHttpRequest.responseXML good for (in XHTML)?
To: Apple Web Dev list <email@hidden>

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed
I am using some AJAX (via prototype.js ) to get content of XHTML
file. AJAX works perfectly. I am getting wonderful XML which looks/
sounds/smells like DOM XML representing my XHTML page. The problem it
that every time I am trying to "move" nodes from XML which I got via
AJAX to my XHTML page DOM, Safari crash. These are relevant bits of
my code:
...
function importXHTML( url ) {
var myAjax = new Ajax.Request( url, { method: 'get', asynchronous:
false });
if( myAjax.transport.status != 200 ) {
return null;
}
return myAjax.transport.responseXML;
}
...
var xhtml = importXHTML( fullHref );
var bodyElement = xhtml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName( "body" )
[0];
var nextChild = bodyElement.firstChild;
while( nextChild ) {
target.appendChild( nextChild );
nextChild = nextChild.nextSibling;
}
...
To be precise, Safari crash trying to "appendChild" first element
node (the very first node happen to be #text and it does not case any
problems ).
Am I doing something illegal? The very same code works happily on
Firefox.
Your comments will be highly appreciated,
