No dice John. I updated the xml response to this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MyRoot><MyText>FooManchu</MyText></MyRoot>
and changed the .ajax call to this:
$.ajax({ type: "GET",
url: "test.cfm",
dataType: "xml",
success: function(msg){ alert( "Data Saved: " + $( "MyText", msg
).text() ); }
});
and I get the same result. The alert window pops up but the text in the
child node "MyText" doesn't appear in the pop up.
