I am retrieving an xml file and using jquery to parse it, which is all working wonderfully.
My problem is that I need to pass the same xml as a string on to some other parts of my system. I can't figure out how to get jquery to give me the string version, so I tried to change the dataType of the xmlhttprequest to text, save it in a var, and then have jquery parse it, but that isn't working either. What's the best way to have the xml as a string and as a properly parsed jquery DOM object? Thanks!
