Description

Failcase app.js: 
var doc = Ti.XML.parseString("<a/>");
var elem = doc.getElementById("no_such_thing"); // NPE
According to spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-DOM-Level-2-Core-20001113/core.html#i-Document) passing getElementById an ID that does not exist should result in null being returned.
