Hi All,

I have simple XML file which is listed below. I need to have JavaScript be
able to retrieve the value of Caption (Welcome To The Club!).

All my code is below.

Thanks!


XML:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
<Grid>
<Type>
<attr0>0 </attr0>
</Type>
<AutoResizeColumns>
<attr0>0 </attr0>
</AutoResizeColumns>
<AutoSearch>
<attr0>1 </attr0>
</AutoSearch>
<Caption>
<attr0>Welcome To The Club!</attr0>
</Caption>
</Grid>
</root>

Javascript:

I can get the WORD attr0 by having:

alert
(o.responseXML.getElementsByTagName('Caption')[0].childNodes[0].nodeName);

but I can NOT get to the value.
