Hi

I have followed instructions on this page:
http://blog.reindel.com/2009/06/10/sending-an-xml-document-object-to-php-with-jquery/

and in my case I added following to the HEAD section:

1. <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.3.2.js"></script>
2. <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.js"></script>
3. <script type="text/javascript">
4. jQuery.createXMLDocument = function( s ) {
5.     var browserName = navigator.appName;
6.     var xmlDoc;
7.     if ( browserName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" ) {
8.         xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject( "Microsoft.XMLDOM" );
9.         xmlDoc.async = "false";
10.         xmlDoc.loadXML( s );
11.     } else {
12.         xmlDoc = ( new DOMParser() ).parseFromString( s, "text/xml" );
13.     }
14.     return xmlDoc;
15. }
16. function test() {
17.     var xmlDoc = jQuery.createXMLDocument( "<items></items>" );
18.     jQuery( "items", xmlDoc ).append( jQuery( "<item>Hello World!</item>" ) );
19.     jQuery.ajax({
20.         url: "http://localfile/getXML.php",
21.         type: "POST",
22.         processData: false,
23.         contentType: "text/xml",
24.         data: xmlDoc,
25.         success: function( data ) {
26.             alert( data );
27.         }
28.     });
29. }
30. </script>

my getXML.php looks like this:

1. <?php
2. $xml = file_get_contents( "php://input" );
3. $simpleXml = simplexml_load_string( $xml );
4. $simpleXml->xpath( "/items/ITEM" );
5. foreach ( $simpleXml as $item ) {
6.     echo $item."\n";
7. }
8. ?>

Everything works fine in Firefox (3.5.7) on LInux.
Problem is on IE 6.0.2900 in Windows.
I get an error:
Line: 12
Error: Type Mismatch

And when I start debugger it points me to
I.appendChild(G[J])
from file jquery-1.3.2.js

looks like a bug.

Or maybe I did something wrong ????

any ideas ?
