responseXML has trailing garbage

[björn lundin]

Hi, I've got a (to me) strange error doing AJAX.
I get the followomg fault in Firebug,
and translated to english it says:
Xml parsing error : junk after document element Address .....
Row 1, column 110

If i alert responseText, it looks fine.
If i run with parameter GET_ONE_RECORD, it works fine,
with responseXML

Any ideas?

You wrote <table .../> while you meant <table ...> without the slash.
