I see that you have not yet worked a lot with WMS.
The WMS 1.x standard says that the MIME type of GetCapabilities is 
"application/vnd.ogc.wms_xml"
That is not known by browsers and therefore the XML content does not show but 
browser wants to save the result on a disk. Save is and open with text editor 
and you will do fine. Sometimes the suggested file name is for example 
"mapserv.exe" which may feel odd. It is still plain text.

In this case, I suppose that parsing the xml document as ISO-8859-1 should
do the trick.
have to check if DOMParser can be configured to be encoding aware.
