Hi yesprakash, Please check the encoding of the page as well as please update to the latest Firefox version 31: Update Firefox to the latest release

Applications panel - Set how Firefox handles different types of files xml can be added here, and how to check the encoding of the page:

  1. Click View > Character encoding and select the right one for xml.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../XML_in_Mozilla

Do you have an xml parser for the xml file? Do you have the header: header( 'Content-Type: text/xml, charset=utf-8' );

I hope this helps.

If you are using XMLHttpRequest, could you provide a link to the page demonstrating this problem? It is difficult to advise on code issues without a test case.
