disply raw xml, tags and all

OK, so I need to open up an XML file and copy the contents into a string and display as is, with the tags. What do you think can we do it? Crazy? Perhaps, but I just do what they ask. I thought I could trick the interpreter by putting quotation marks around the data, but I get "[object Object]" when I do that instead of [object Object]. Not that tricky I guess.  I guess I will have to stick everything inside some <pre> tags eventually too.

  1. $('#display-xml').click(function(){
                    $.ajax({
                           url:'result.xml',
                           cache: false,
                           error: function(xhr, status, error){
                           alert("Error: " + xhr.status + " - " + error)},
                           dataType: 'xml',
                           success: function(data){
                            var html ='';
                            html = '<h3>Raw Plan XML</h3>';
                            html += '"';
                            html +=$(data).find('data');
                            html+= '"';
                          $('#graphicsDisplay').html(html)
               
                           }
                         
                          }); //end get
                   
                }); // end click display-xml


















Sample xml:

  1. <data>
    <row>
        <nai>23</nai>
        <source>it</source>
        <size>big</size>
        <activity>rolling</activity>
        <location>here</location>
        <unit>cm</unit>
        <time>now</time>
        <equipment>red truck</equipment>
        <remarks>none</remarks>
    </row>
