try {
var strXML = "<?xml version='1.0' ?><AnyElement>Sometext</AnyElement>"
var objXMLDOM = new ActiveXObject ( "Msxml2.DOMDocument.3.0" ) ;
objXMLDOM.loadXML(strXML) ;

//If no exception is raised MSXML 3 is installed.
document.write("MSXML 3 is installed on your machine.") ;
}

// If there is an exception it could be a coding error but
// it is likely that MSXML 3 is not installed.
catch (e)
{
document.write("MSXML 3 is NOT installed on your machine.");
}
</script>
</body>

I wonder what can one expect if one does not even follow the syntax of the language one uses? Can we leave the matter of syntax to imagination? Besides, there are language forum where syntax question should be posted.
