What do I do wrong querying XML?

in Using jQuery • 12 years ago

I expected this to work, it does not - what do I do wrong? It does not return neither attribute, nor text.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>XML processing test</title>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            var respBody = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><etp lastUpdated="10/15/2010">wertwe2<a>df</a></etp>';
            console.log(jQuery(respBody).find('etp').attr('lastUpdated'));
            console.log(jQuery(respBody).find('etp').text());
        </script>
    </head>
    <body></body>
</html>

It works when you remove the .find() method.

Firefox display boths value's nicely but IE9 RC will return undefined on the attribute.

Interesting, that returns stuff from .text(), but not from .attr() - and I am mostly interested in attr() (lines in my code shifted by 1).

try this:

var respBody = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><etp lastUpdated="10/15/2010">wertwe2<a>df</a></etp>';
var respXml = jQuery.parseXML(respBody);

console.log($(respXml).children().attr('lastUpdated'));
console.log($(respXml).children().text());
