Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 Build ID: 20130116073211 Steps to reproduce: Make a request to an endpoint that returns invalid XML: --- xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhr.open('GET', 'http://wcipeg.com/etc/brian/invalidXML', false); xhr.send(); --- In this particular case, the XML is invalid because it looks like this: --- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <root>This is the root element.</root> <junk>This extra node makes the XML invalid.</junk> --- Actual results: When the request returned, xhr.responseXML was a <parsererror> node Expected results: xhr.responseXML should have been null. At least, that's what this thread from way back suggests: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289714 (Also, apparently Chrome and Safari both return null.)
