Remarks
Internet Explorer 10 in Windows 8 updates the IHTMLXMLHttpRequest::responseXML property from XMLHttpRequest to return a native XML document by default. This change applies to Internet Explorer 10 Standards and Quirks document modes, making them interoperable with other modern browsers. Compatibility document modes for Windows Internet Explorer 5, 7, 8, and 9 are unchanged. For more info, see XMLHttpRequest responseXML in Internet Explorer 10.
Use QueryInterface to convert the returned pointer p into IXMLDOMDocument.
IHTMLXMLHttpRequest::responseXML was introduced in Windows Internet Explorer 7.
Using responseXML in Windows apps using JavaScript
In Windows apps using JavaScript, this property returns a DOMParser object instead of an IXMLDOMDocument object.
