you're close... you don't get simple text from an xml request.
you get a big ol' request object.
if you just want the text from the html
you can see it in a 'complete' call back with data.responseText
inside success, you get back the responseXML part of the request.
it's an xmlDocument that needs to be navigated with $("answer",data)
or something like that!
Hope that helps!
