msxml 1.8 questions

All of your questions indicate that the new MSXML 1.8 isn't installed
properly.  The MSXML parser included with IE4 did not return whitespace
nodes, and was not case sensitive - so if the XMLViewer is showing tag names
in uppercase it's probably still using the old parser.

If you run http://www.microsoft.com/standards/xml/xmlinst.exe it should
install properly (it uses install.exe)

If you run install.exe manually you should do so from a DOS command prompt
with the current directory set to 
	c:\msxml (or wherever you installed MSXML).
