The selectors you're using in the 2 examples are drastically different. The
fact that you're getting no alert means one of two things:
1) You're getting a JS error
2) Your selector isn't returning any results.
What happens if you change your selector from:
$('/rss//item')
To
$('/rss//item', data)
???
If that doesn't work, try:
$('item', data)
The above selector matches what you're doing in your second sample code.
