Yang:

That particular code appears to be from MapBuilder, rather than from
OpenLayers. Can you confirm that?

I don't have enough experience with that particular chunk of code to
recognize what 'getElements' is doing -- in general, OpenLayers has a
wrapper function:

OpenLayers.Ajax.getElementsByTagNameNS(data, this.gmlns, "gml",
                                       this.featureName);

which works on IE.

If you can share the code you're having problems with, that would be
helpful.
