That doesn't work for me. I get an error saying "length is null or
not an object", because the $(path,xml) call did not return a result
(I tried calling this outside of the for loop boundary to check this).
I've made the problem even simpler, maybe this will point to what I'm
doing wrong. This code works (alerts an object):
alert($("*"));
and this code does not work (alerts an undefined)
var xml =
"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?>" +
"<subscr.Subscriber>" +
" <subscriberId>1</subscriberId>" +
" <subscriberName>Default customer</subscriberName>" +
"</subscr.Subscriber>";
alert($("*", xml));
Any idea why?
Thanks!
Jamie
