I'm using this tutorial for xml consumption with jquery: http://www.webmonkey.com/tutorial/Easy_XML_Consumption_using_jQuery
The tutorial includes this code example to find the value of the "post" attribute in the node "name": studentPost = $this.find("name").attr("post"); But... It doesn't work if a namespace is added. For example, this doesn't work: studentPost = $this.find("name:funny").attr("post"); Notice the ":funny" namespace above. The xml doc looks something like this: <name:funny post='ha ha'... How can I use JQuery to access the attribute value if there is a namespace?
