Hi folks,
According to MS' testing 4 major browsers (I am guessing they mean
Opera, Safari, Mozilla/FF and IE although I am not actually sure) all
fail the following tests. It would be helpful to check them against the
spec and as tests to determine whether there is some simple bug we
should fix. If people are prepared to take on the task of analysing
them, we should be able to start making these official or raising issues
where this has not already happened.
Note that I will look at the first one on this list -
http://tc.labs.opera.com/apis/XMLHttpRequest/responseXML/009.htm
If we are going to have decent test coverage, we need to do this not
just for these tests but for those we agree are valid tests, so don't be
shy about volunteering for a handful of tests and checking them.

I just looked at two random tests (that fail here for FF2), and I agree
that those would be much more useful if they came with some
documentation about what is expected.
Re <http://tc.labs.opera.com/apis/XMLHttpRequest/responseXML/009.htm>:
This seems to assume that
<http://tc.labs.opera.com/apis/XMLHttpRequest/responseXML/support/008.xml>
is not XML, but it is (served as application/xml).
Re <http://tc.labs.opera.com/apis/XMLHttpRequest/setRequestHeader/007.htm>:
This sets "Pragma" to an invalid value, which may not be a good idea.
But what's really needed is the source of the server-side code that
get's executed.
