Re: html as xml document on IE

No, it does not. It would seem that you either mistake the methods of DOM
Level 2+ Core as being XML-DOM-specific, or you have not understood the
difference between HTML and XHTML.

In IE it doesn't, at least I haven't found any direct way to this,
so thats why Im asking.

IE does not implement W3C DOM Level 2 for the most part.

You should ask *exactly* what you would like to know instead, and be
prepared to answer the "Why?" question.
