title: Load and parse xml based on string, IE
body: <p>Im trying to parse an xml string in IE based on the following example: <a href="http://dean.edwards.name/weblog/2006/04/easy-xml/" rel="nofollow">http://dean.edwards.name/weblog/2006/04/easy-xml/</a></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt;
  &lt;html lang="en-US"&gt;
  &lt;head&gt;
  &lt;meta charset="UTF-8"&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;&lt;/title&gt;
  
  &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
  
      $(function(){
  
          var xml = document.createElement("xml");
          xml.src = '&lt;test&gt;&lt;node1&gt;Test&lt;/node1&gt;&lt;/test&gt;';
          document.body.appendChild(xml);
          var xmlDocument = xml.XMLDocument;
          document.body.removeChild(xml);
  
      });
  
  &lt;/script&gt;
  &lt;/head&gt;
  &lt;body&gt;
  
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>

  <p>However, its not working. I get no errors, but nothing is happening.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to generate an XML file on the client side in IE based on a valid xml string? Is activeX the only option?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance</p>
