jQuery Forum

Hello

Im new to javascripting / jquery but do have basic working knowledge of (html/perl/powershell/vb), so can grasp basic coding concepts.

I am trying to parse an xml file and get some data to be displayed in the wbe page's table section. This all works from googling most of what I am trying to achive and it works : -) , but I would like the data it collects to be displayed into different lines in the html table, and this is where my lack of know-how is stopping me in my tracks.

The data, which I want is the id and the name from the xml file, these are displayed all on one line, I have tried to add <br> but without success, so does anyone have any pointers that could help me do this. I am not a seasoned java scripter nor programmer, but can keep up...albeit slowly.

JavaScript Code

//This is the file jquery gets the data from
function myGetXmlData() {

    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "xml/auto_assignment_list.xml",
        dataType: "xml",
        success: xmlParser
    });

}

//this is the function to get the specific data and then pass it to the html table id

function xmlParser(xml) {
    $(xml).find('auto_assignment_list').each(function () {
        var $show = $(this);
        var data = {
            id: $show.find('id').text() ,
            name: $show.find('name').text() ,
               };
        var row = $('<tr />');
        for (var prop in data) {
            $('<td>' + data[prop] + '</td>').appendTo(row);
        }

        $('#t01').append(row);
    });
}


The output lookes like this and the name is the same in that its not on seperate lines
(Id cell)

It should be like
038aeb37-550e-4a02-b8a7-249e45ee4d2e
56a25f17-b668-43ab-a306-8b4e0529ec82
etc etc

I understand I may need to split the data, but im out of my depth here in terms of how to do this..

Any help would appricated.
