Parsing external or remote XML file through javascript

[munnan]

When I try to parse xml fixed string following code works fine. When I try to parse the string get from remote server.(bellow code example) It gives me an error unterminated string. I think this error is because of large string.How can I parse external xml file i.e http://abc.xml from the javascript ???


var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");

function loadXML(strXML)
{

xmlDoc.async="false";
xmlDoc.onreadystatechange=verify;
xmlDoc.loadXML(strXML);

xmlObj=xmlDoc.documentElement;
}

function verify()
{
// 0 Object is not initialized
// 1 Loading object is loading data
// 2 Loaded object has loaded data
// 3 Data from object can be worked with
// 4 Object completely initialized
if (xmlDoc.readyState != 4)
{
return false;
}
}

function loadData(){//start function

var strXML=strReturnXML="";

strReturnXML="<response><request type='destination list' id='8'><language_code>ING</language_code>"+
"<agency><primary>888</primary><secondary>88</secondary><detail>888</detail><branch>1</branch></agency></request><country><code>ES</code><description>SPAIN</description><destination><code>IBZ</code><description>IBIZA</description><zone><code>20</code><description>SAN ANTONIO [CENTRO]</description></zone></destination><destination><code>PMI</code><description>MALLORCA</description><zone><code>20</code><description>PLAYA DE PALMA</description></zone><zone><code>31</code><description>SANTA PONSA</description></zone></destination><destination><code>MAH</code><description>MENORCA</description><zone><code>10</code><description>MAHON</description></zone></destination></country><country><code>PT</code><description>PORTUGAL</description><destination><code>FAO</code><description>ALGARVE</description><zone><code>80</code><description>ALBUFEIRA</description></zone></destination></country></response>";

loadXML(strReturnXML);

loadXML(strReturnXML);

I recieved your P/M and in response....

No, they have all not been unaswered... Many of the threads you started were responded too and many people asked you for clarification (one example I am personally aware of is Josh responding to one of the three post you made on Weborum Forums)...

I also responded and provided a working example of an XML HTTPrequest script I use to one of your numerous posts on Weburom but I had it removed when I discovered that you keep starting new threads without following up on the ones that you previously started...

And no, I'm not wasting my time providing the code again... I only hope you learn that peoples time is valuable and you should respect their effort in replying to your questions by at least acknowledging their response and answer any questions they may have....

Have many nice days;

I want to clarify a thing here,that all the threads that you have indicated above are all mine submitions,but you can see from the threads that nobody has replied to mine threads,so I have to use other forums (all available resources) to submit and get some kind of clue from there,that is the reason behind all the threads,
anyways if you can give me a clue for the solution of my problem(http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?p=257278#post257278),that will be nice of you,
