Hi list,
I've run up against a small problem processing my ajax response using
jQuery.
Suppose I have this xml returned from a post or ajax call:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!DOCTYPE sebResponse>
<sebResponse>
<element1>some text</element1>
<element2>more text</element2>
</sebResponse>
The key thing here is that I don't know what elements will be in
<sebResponse>; it could be as shown, or there could be a hundred
different elements.
I'd like to iterate through this xml (which is contained in an object
called data, returned from the ajax call) to get the element tag-name
and the element contents. I can get the contents like this:
$("sebResponse", data).children().each(function() {
alert ("element content is: " + $(this).text());
});
This gives me access to the content of each element - "some text",
"more text", but I also need the element name in each case.
Can anyone tell me how to get that?
best regards,
Seb James
