childNodes.length IE and FF difference

Hi all,

I got a problem with childNodes.length, I use the following XML for my
guestbook:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<guestbook>
<entry>
<from>Q1tum</from>
<mail>kuukelekuu at gmail dot com</mail>
<date>2006-05-16 09:41</date>
<message>First test message</message>
</entry>
<entry>
<from>Q1tum</from>
<mail>kuukelekuu at gmail dot com</mail>
<date>2006-05-17 09:41</date>
<message>Seconde test message</message>
</entry>
</guestbook>

when I use the following script to check I get different output in IE
and FireFox:

var xml = response.responseXML;
var table = document.getElementById('guestbook');

var num = xml.getElementsByTagName('guestbook')[0].childNodes.length;

alert(num);

IE alerts 2
FF alerts 5

Anyone have a idea why that is?

Regards,

Q1tum
