bringing in a (XML data) URL into jquery

bringing in a (XML data) URL into jquery

Hello
I am somewhat new to jQuery ( and loving it!) but I need to get data from a URL

I have the xml locally and it works.. I get the data displayed in html - but really needs to happen for me is to bring in the data with a URL like this one: http://184.173.18.228/api/profile/1000/0/A … ( no extension on it like ".xml"

$.ajax({
  url: "adam.xml",

$.ajax({
  url: "http://184.173.18.228/api/profile/1000/0/A",

it doesnt work of course - hoe can I get a URL in there?

thanks

Rob
