responsetypes in xmlhttp

[stellstarin]

Hi all,

when xmlhttp request is sent to get html or xml files, the response
could be stored in 'responseText' or 'responseXML'.Is there anyother
type of responses that can be received
by the xmlhttp functions.Does any of you have idea regarding this?

MSXML also exposes responseBody and responseStream see

Within the browser there is not much use for that, at least not alone
with XMLHTTP. With MSXML if you also use other objects/interfaces like
Msxml2.DOMDocument or ADODB.Stream then it makes more sense.
