Run a workflow using JavaScript in CRM 2011

Here is the code to run workflow using JavaScript

function RunWorkFlow() {
    var entityId = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId().substring(1, 37); //Guid of record that workflow is to run on.
    var workflowId = "090227fa-68ad-453b-8ea5-3ca63058d240"; //Workflow Guid.
    var url = Xrm.Page.context.getServerUrl();
    var OrgServicePath = "/XRMServices/2011/Organization.svc/web";
    url = url + OrgServicePath;
    var request;
    request = "<s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">" +
              "<s:Body>" +
                "<Execute xmlns=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts/Services\" xmlns:i=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">" +
                    "<request i:type=\"b:ExecuteWorkflowRequest\" xmlns:a=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts\" xmlns:b=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/crm/2011/Contracts\">" +
                    "<a:Parameters xmlns:c=\"http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/System.Collections.Generic\">" +
                        "<a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType>" +
                        "<c:key>EntityId</c:key>" +
                        "<c:value i:type=\"d:guid\" xmlns:d=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/\">" + entityId + "</c:value>" +
                        "</a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType>" +
                        "<a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType>" +
                        "<c:key>WorkflowId</c:key>" +
                        "<c:value i:type=\"d:guid\" xmlns:d=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/\">" + workflowId + "</c:value>" +
                        "</a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType>" +
                    "</a:Parameters>" +
                    "<a:RequestId i:nil=\"true\" />" +
                    "<a:RequestName>ExecuteWorkflow</a:RequestName>" +
                    "</request>" +
                "</Execute>" +
                "</s:Body>" +
            "</s:Envelope>";
    var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
    req.open("POST", url, true)
    // Responses will return XML. It isn't possible to return JSON.
    req.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/xml, text/xml, */*");
    req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8");
    req.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts/Services/IOrganizationService/Execute");
    req.onreadystatechange = function () { assignResponse(req); };
    req.send(request);
}

function assignResponse(req) {
    if (req.readyState == 4) {
        if (req.status == 200) {
            //alert('successfully executed the workflow');
        }
    }
}
