[jQuery] Re: RSS Feed Aggregator with $.ajax

[Ricardo Tomasi]

Is that actually working? XPath selectors are not supported in jQuery
anymore.

Make it simple:

$(function() {

$.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: "http://anthonyjamesbruno.com/blog/?feed=rss2";,
    dataType: "xml",
    success: function(rss) {
       strRSS = "<h4>" + $("/rss/channel/title",rss).text() + "</h4>";
        $("/rss/channel/item:lt(5)",rss).each(function(i) {
           var t = $(this),
           link = t.find('link'),
           title = t.find('title'),
           description = t.find('description').text().substring
(0,200);
                $('<li/>')
                  .click(function(){ window.location.href = link })
                  .append( title + '<br />' +
description )
                  .appendTo('#feed_me');
      });
   }
});
