General Remarks

For security reasons, the parser validation features are always turned off to prevent the Microsoft® XML Parser (MSXML) from attempting to download a document type definition or XML-data definition. If the response entity body is not valid XML, this property returns DOMDocumentthat was parsed so that you can access the error. This property does not return IXMLDOMParseErroritself, but it is accessible from DOMDocument.

If the response was generated by an Active Server Pages (ASP) page and the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) type was not correctly set to text/xml using the ASP method Response.ContentType, responseXMLwill be empty.

The property is read-only, and applies to the following interface:

IXMLHTTPRequest
