Import XML from URL doesn't work, but from file does

I have an xml file that is available from a url. If I go to the URL, save the page as filename.xml, then import via the Import Records script step (specifying the xml file as a file, and an xsl file as a file), the records are imported fine.

However, in the Import Records script step, if I try to specify the xml file as a HTTP Request, I get the error "XML/XSL information is not enough to proceed with import/export".

In addition, I have successfully added the URL of the xml file to a web viewer window, so I know FileMaker can read the URL ok.

Does anyone know if there is any other step I have to do in order to be able to import directly from a HTTP request rather than from a file?

I have the same problem with FileMaker Pro 11v3 on Windows Vista! Any solution?
