I found this old thread and wondered what the conclusion was. I want to include an XML stream in my HTML page. I have created some JavaScript code. The code can be used by site developers to create an menu for their site. The developer needs only create: menu.xml - the data for the menu menu.css - the look and feel of the menu and include my menu.js. I have javascript to parse the XML and produce the menu. I include the XML using <iframe src="menu.xml">. Here is the problem: I used xmlSrcframe.document.documentElement.innerText to get the XML source as a string. This is not supported by Netscape. I see there is innerHTML, but on IE the browser returns innerHTML as a formatted stream full of divs, spans, classes, fonts, margins... Is there a DOM compliant way to get this XML source to the client to be processed on the client by my JavaScript. If so users of my menu will not have to know anything about server side development.
