[Laszlo-user] XMLHttpRequest Question

[Henry Minsky]

There is a boolean flag on dataset called "nsprefix", which if you set to
true, is supposed to preserve
namespace prefixes

<dataset nsprefix="true" ...>

Try that and see if it removes  the difference in behavior of  DHTML vs SWF
results, if not please file a bug!
