xmlreader crashing on html comment inside xml feed

[Zxurian]

I'm using a dataStore with an xmlreader, however the javascript is crashing whenever I load Yahoo!'s RSS News feed, apparently the problem is that Yahoo includes an HTML comment at the end of there rss feed with a timestamp. The specific javascript error is as follows


no element found

	<!-- rc2.ops.bf1.yahoo.com uncompressed/chunked Tue Aug 21 17:14:17 UTC 2012 ---^

Any ideas on how to avoid extjs having issues with comments in an xml feed?

however the javascript is crashing

Where is it crashing .. can you intercept the response and parse out the string?
