Hi guys!

Trying to parse an xml using jquery.

This seems to work only With IE 11 (didn't try older releases). Chrome, Opera and Firefox don't do anything..

1. <script type="text/javascript">
2.       if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
3.       {
4.         xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
5.       }
6.       else
7.       {
8.         xmlHttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XmlHTTP");
9.       }
10.       xmlHttp.open("GET", "DataSources/XML/XMLCountries.XML", false);
11.       xmlHttp.send();
12.       xmlDoc = xmlHttp.responseXML;
13.       var $xml = $(xmlDoc);
14.       $xml.find('Country').each(function () {
15.         alert($(this).attr('Name'));
16.       });
17.     </script>

This is the XML file:

1. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
2. <CountriesList xmlns="XMLCountries.xsd">
3.  <Country Name="England" NavigateUrl="" ImageUrl="~/Images/flags/shiny/16/England.png" Tooltip="English Leagues and Cups"/>
4. <Country Name="France" NavigateUrl="" ImageUrl="~/Images/flags/shiny/16/France.png" Tooltip="French Leagues and Cups"/>
5.  <Country Name="Germany" NavigateUrl="" ImageUrl="~/Images/flags/shiny/16/Germany.png" Tooltip="German Leagues and Cups"/>
6.   <Country Name="Italy" NavigateUrl="" ImageUrl="~/Images/flags/shiny/16/Italy.png" Tooltip="German Leagues and Cups"/>
7.   <Country Name="Spain" NavigateUrl="" ImageUrl="~/Images/flags/shiny/16/Spain.png" Tooltip="Spanish Leagues and Cups"/>
8.   <Country Name="Portugal" NavigateUrl="" ImageUrl="~/Images/flags/shiny/16/Portugal.png" Tooltip="Portugal Leagues and Cups"/>
9. </CountriesList>

What am I missing?? I'm quite sure IE 11 uses XMLHttprequest in place of Microsoft.XMLHttp, so this shouldn't be an issue of the XMLHttprequest.

Thx for your help!
