Why would innerHTML work on XML content? If it works in IE, don't you
think that's the problem?

If you want the content to be treated as XML, then use responseXML. If
you want to "view source", then you must do the same thing as you do
when you want to view source on a web page: view it as if it were
plain text. In this case, you do this by looking at responseText.
