So continuing on my learning experience, I initially tried using .ajax()
to make my Ajax call but was unsuccessful. Then with the help of John
and Arash, I was able to make the call via .get().
I'm revisiting the .ajax() issue since I'm not sure if its something
that I'm doing wrong or if its a bug in JQuery 1.0.1.
This code works:
$.get( "test.cfm", function(msg){
alert( "Data Saved: " + $( "MyText", msg).text() );
});
This code does not:
$.ajax({ type: "GET",
url: "test.cfm",
dataType: "xml",
success: function(msg){ alert( $( "MyText", msg ).text() ); }
});
For the .ajax snippet, Firebug returns the following XML as the response:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MyRoot><MyText>FooManchu</MyText></MyRoot>
and the response header is:
Content-Type: text/xml
but the alert box specified in the success param comes out empty.
Any ideas?
Rey...
