I need a simple wrapper for a Mozilla/Safari and IE compatible XMLHttpRequest().

Perhaps something like (courtesy of Apple):

function loadXMLDoc(url,method,readyFunc) {
    req = false;
    if (method) method = "GET";
    // branch for native XMLHttpRequest object
    if(window.XMLHttpRequest) {
        try {
            req = new XMLHttpRequest();
        } catch(e) {
            req = false;
        }
    // branch for IE/Windows ActiveX version
    } else if(window.ActiveXObject) {
        try {
            req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
        } catch(e) {
            try {
                req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
            } catch(e) {
                req = false;
            }
        }
    }
    if(req) {
        req.onreadystatechange = readyFunc;
        req.open(method, url, true);
        req.send("");
    }
    return req;
}
