RE: [xmljs-users] parsing problem

[Chandan K. <cha...@bl...>]

Thanks a lot.
The new file worked perfectly.

The old file works if the namespaceaware property is set to false as shown
here:
......................................................
	var parser = new DOMImplementation();
	//this property has to be set to false to enable the parser to read
tags closed in a single line
	//for eg <A ........ />
	parser.namespaceAware = false;
.......................................................

There is another problem with the file in internet explorer. This problem
was present in the old file too. An "exception thrown but not caught" error
is thrown in IE. This problem vanished when line 428 in the new file was
commented:
......................................................
	    else if(iEvt == XMLP._ERROR) {
      //throw(new DOMException(DOMException.SYNTAX_ERR));
.........................................................

Thanks,
Chandan
