{
                if (window.ActiveXObject)
                 {
                  var doc=new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLDOM');
                  doc.async='false';
                  doc.loadXML(text);
                }
              else {
                  var parser=new DOMParser();
                  var doc=parser.parseFromString(text,'text/xml');
