IXMLHttpRequest::get_responseXML Method

This document describes the proposed design to be delivered with Internet Explorer 5, and differs slightly from the implementation provided with this Internet Explorer 5 Beta. We encourage you to evaluate these features and to send us your feedback. Please note that these features are subject to change.

Represents the response entity body as parsed by the Microsoft XML DOM parser.

Syntax

HRESULT get_responseXML(
    IDispatch ** ppXmlDom);

Parameters

ppXmlDom

[out] Response entity body as an XML document.

Return Value

Returns S_OK if successful, or E_PENDING if the data is unavailable.

Remarks

For security reasons, the parser validation features are always turned off to prevent MSXML from attempting to download a document type definition (DTD) or XML-Data definition.

If the response entity body is not valid XML, this method returns the IDOMDocument object that was parsed so that you can access the error object. This property does not return the IDOMParseError error object itself, but that object is accessible from the IDOMDocument object.
