hello all -

does anyone know what the current status of mootools 1.3 and xml
parsing is?

when using mootools - what is the current best way to parse with XML
and javascript (while managing to avoid problems with internet
explorer) ?

thanks,
brook

You mean select nodes?

Slick (the new selector engine on mootools 1.3), works perfectly with XML documents.

Just do Slick.search (to select multiple nodes) or Slick.find (to select the first it finds).

oh wow - i didnt realize i could use slick to do this.

so if i understand correctly there is no longer a need to use the
different browser´s xml parsers. you just use mootool´s request
method - then use slick to parse the loaded file -- and therefore you
don´t have to worry about cross browsers issues. is this right?

Yes, you can use it directly on the responseXML returned.
