Got malformed xml via GM.xmlHttpRequest?

I'm trying to check in the background if a linked website has the text "Gewerblicher Nutzer" (Commercial user) at a certain position. The xpath is correct, I ran several different tests.

But apparently the problem is further up, I only get a parsererror back.

What can I do, where is the mistake? Hopefully not some async/promise problem again :dizzy:

Try to actually use your fallback code for xml parser:

        onload: function(r) {
            var responseXML = r.responseXML ||
              new DOMParser().parseFromString(r.responseText, "text/xml");
            isCommercial(responseXML);
            console.log("XML response:");
            console.log(responseXML);
        }

Thanks for your answer. I tried it and it's the same result :( But I noticed that the XML response URL isn't even the one specified in requestHTML("https://blabla.bla") but the one from the site you are currently at: https://i.imgur.com/F7ELPH6.png I hope that's just a consequence of the parsererror because I have no idea why that should happen.

It means you can't use XML parser on an HTML document. Use DOMParser with text/html:

    onload: function(r) {
        var doc = new DOMParser().parseFromString(r.responseText, "text/html");
        isCommercial(doc);
        console.log(doc);
    }
