trq Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I must be missing something simple here. Ive setup a few simple files for testing, but I cant for the life of me get any output produced. front.php <html> <head> <title>ajax test</title> <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="/media/js/jquery/jquery.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $.get('http://dev.oblivion/back.php', {}, function() { $(this).find('users').each(function() { $(this).find('user').each(function() { var fname = $(this).find('fname').text(); var lname = $(this).find('lname').text(); }); }); }); $('#foo').html(fname + ' ' + lname); }); </script> </head> <body> <div id="foo"></div> </body> </html> back.php <?php $xml = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\"?>\n"; $xml .= "<users>\n"; $xml .= " <user>\n"; $xml .= " <fname>thorpe</fname>\n"; $xml .= " <lname>hepburn</lname>\n"; $xml .= " </user>\n"; $xml .= "</users>"; header("Content-Type: text/xml"); echo $xml; ?> Any pointers much appreciated.

RichardRotterdam Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 this might help a bit it's a lower level implementation of the ajax functionality. the variables fname and lname are out of the scope when you try to append it to a div. $(document).ready(function(){ $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "xml.php", dataType: "xml", success: function(xml) { $(xml).find('users').each(function(){ var lname= $(this).find('lname').text(); var fname = $(this).find('fname').text(); console.log(lname); console.log(fname); }); } }); //out of the scope will return "undefined undefined" $('#foo').html(fname + ' ' + lname); }); Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/158899-solved-jquery-parse-xml/#findComment-838080 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 Thanks DJ. I feel like a bit of a dill. You know? I was looking at the function calls as simple loops, console.log pointed out that I was actually getting the data (with a few adjustments), so with that in place it was easy enough to spot that lname fname where out of scope by the time I tried adding them to the #foo div. All fixed now, I did have to initialise data to be an empty object however because I was getting a 411 error. Anyway, thanks heaps. Its not very often I do much client side stuff. I'm loving jQuery though. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/158899-solved-jquery-parse-xml/#findComment-838487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
