Answer 1

You can use DomParser which allows you to parse xml.

if (window.DOMParser)
{
  parser=new DOMParser();
  xmlDoc=parser.parseFromString(txt,"text/xml");
}
else // Internet Explorer
{
  xmlDoc=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
  xmlDoc.async=false;
  xmlDoc.loadXML(txt); 
}

then

var tag = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("TagName");

However, before doing so, you will need to decrypt your response as you state in your question that the response is encrypted.
