That works in IE8, but in FF 3.5.3 I get undefined in the alertbox. I've disabled adblock and flashblock, so its not those interfering. I dont get anything in the error console either.
The code I had posted earlier doesn't work in FF 3.53 either. I'm accessing it by running it on my desktop with this as the URL file:///c:/xampplite/htdocs/DEVELOPMENT/geolocate.htm but even when I access it via a decent URL I still get undefined in FF http://localhost/DEVELOPMENT/geolocate.htm On Jan 6, 10:13 pm, Jules <jwira...@gmail.com> wrote: > Ahah, too much stale eggnog. > > var option = { > error: function(request, status, error) { > alert(error); > }, > success: function(data, status) { > > var xml = $(data); > alert(xml.find('City').text()); > }, > dataType: "xml", > type: "GET", > url: "your url here" > }; > > $.ajax(option); > > This code works for me. > > On Jan 7, 2:50 pm, Steven Yang <kenshin...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > just making sure > > > you are not able to parse the xml at all right? > > i believe for IE you have to make sure you server returns the correct > > content type like text/xml to client inorder for you to parse > > > hope this help > > > On Thu, Jan 7, 2010 at 9:30 AM, Jules <jwira...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > For some reason, it works on firefox (3.5.6) and doesn't work in ie > > > 6.0 and 8.0 > > > > On Jan 7, 6:39 am, Frank Peterson <fictionalper...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > I'm grabbing an XML file with jQuery like this: > > > > > $(document).ready(function(){ > > > > $.ajax({ > > > > type: "GET", > > > > url: "http://ipinfodb.com/ip_query.php?ip=74.125.45.100", > > > > dataType: "xml", > > > > success: function(xml) { > > > > //$(xml).find().each(function(){ > > > > var city = $(xml).find("City").text(); > > > > /* > > > > $('<div class="items" id="link_'+id+'"></div>').html > > > > ('<a href="'+url+'">'+title+'</a>').appendTo('#page-wrap'); > > > > $(this).find('desc').each(function(){ > > > > var brief = $(this).find('brief').text(); > > > > var long = $(this).find('long').text(); > > > > $('<div class="brief"></div>').html(brief).appendTo > > > > ('#link_'+id); > > > > $('<div class="long"></div>').html(long).appendTo > > > > ('#link_'+id); > > > > }); > > > > */ > > > > alert(city) > > > > //}); > > > > } > > > > }); > > > > > }); > > > > > The XML file looks like this > > > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > > > > <Response> > > > > <Ip>74.125.45.100</Ip> > > > > <Status>OK</Status> > > > > <CountryCode>US</CountryCode> > > > > <CountryName>United States</CountryName> > > > > <RegionCode>06</RegionCode> > > > > <RegionName>California</RegionName> > > > > <City>Mountain View</City> > > > > <ZipPostalCode>94043</ZipPostalCode> > > > > <Latitude>37.4192</Latitude> > > > > <Longitude>-122.057</Longitude> > > > > <Timezone>-8</Timezone> > > > > <Gmtoffset>-8</Gmtoffset> > > > > <Dstoffset>-7</Dstoffset> > > > > </Response> > > > > > But I can't get it to pull the data out.
