XML parsing not working in IE - but works in Firefox!

I’ve been struggling with this for days, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a movie that retrieves an RSS feed from this URL: [COLOR=#333333]http://www.clipsyndicate.com/rss/feed/5572?wpid=2892[/COLOR]

The XML document can be successfully parsed in Flash when viewed in Firefox, but it doesn’t work in IE. Here is a file that demonstrate this:

[COLOR=#333333]http://209.73.224.83/erich2/flashtest/DoesntWorkIE.html[/COLOR]

However, if I open the RSS feed and save a copy of it and post it to my web server, it does work in IE:

[COLOR=#333333]http://209.73.224.83/erich2/flashtest/WorksIE.html[/COLOR]

Here’s the version of the RSS that is working when saved:

[COLOR=#333333]http://209.73.224.83/erich2/ClipSyndicateRSS_NEW2.xml[/COLOR]

I don’t believe that there is any difference in the two XML documents. Cross domain policy files are in place on both servers - and it doesn’t appear to be a cross-domain issue since it works in Firefox.

The code in the flash files are the same except for the URL of the XML they are retrieving. Here’s the code for the one that isn’t working:

var xmlFeed:XML = new XML();
xmlFeed.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlFeed.load(“http://www.clipsyndicate.com/rss/feed/5572?wpid=2892”);
xmlFeed.onLoad = function(success) {
txtTest.text=xmlFeed;
}

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks,

Erich
