Hi Roald,
thanks for your answer. I know it would be much easier if I used a wfs
getfeature instead of a wms getfeatureinfo. But the problem is that my
proxyhost doesn't work (I don't know why and I spent so much time in solving
this problem), therefore I want to solve my problem with a wms.

You wrote that it is sometimes possible to get a xml back even with wms.
What do you mean by this?

Regards
stash
