To actually get the response, you need to use the responseXML property.I suggest you replace

var xmlDoc;xmlDoc=new window.XMLHttpRequest();xmlDoc.open("GET","books.xml",false);xmlDoc.send("");

with

var xhr=new XMLHttpRequest();xhr.open("GET","books.xml",false);xhr.send("");var xmlDoc=xhr.responseXML;
