           Summary: XMLHttpRequest fails to make synchronous requests
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.r-n-d.org/gt.html
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs

I Steps:
Go to   http://www.r-n-d.org/gt.html
        http://www.r-n-d.org/loader.js

OR
1. Create an XML file that is to be read by the XMLHttpRequest instance
2. Create an HTML document with the following snippet to read the XML file:
var xmlObj = new XMLHttpRequest();
// synchronous XMLHttpRequest call
xmlObj.open("GET", <name of file>, false);
xmlObj.send("");
xmlDoc = xmlObj.responseXML;

3. Place both the HTML document and the XML file on a remote server 
(preferably not on a high-bandwidth server)

4. Check if xmlDoc is null.

II Issue:
XMLHttpRequest.responseXML should return an actual XML document object, but
XMLHttpRequest.responseXML is null. (on Mac - Safari)

III Other Browsers:
IE7: ok
FF3: ok
