Cross-Browser XML Parser

[vunet.us]

What is the cross-browser simple XML JavaScript parser for XMLHTTP
request similar to this, below? I reveive this.responseText as a
result which I need to parse. Thank you.

var req;
function loadXMLDoc(url) {
req = false;
// branch for native XMLHttpRequest object
if(window.XMLHttpRequest && !(window.ActiveXObject)) {
try {
req = new XMLHttpRequest();
} catch(e) {
req = false;
}
// branch for IE/Windows ActiveX version
} else if(window.ActiveXObject) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch(e) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch(e) {
req = false;
}
}
}
if(req) {
req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange;
req.open("GET", url, true);
req.send("");
}
}
