jQuery.parseXML()

jQuery.parseXML( data )Returns: XMLDocument

Description: Parses a string into an XML document.

jQuery.parseXML uses the native parsing function of the browser to create a valid XML Document. This document can then be passed to jQuery to create a typical jQuery object that can be traversed and manipulated.

Example:

Create a jQuery object using an XML string and obtain the value of the title node.

<script>
var xml = "<rss version='2.0'><channel><title>RSS Title</title></channel></rss>",
  xmlDoc = $.parseXML( xml ),
  $xml = $( xmlDoc ),
  $title = $xml.find( "title" );
 
// Append "RSS Title" to #someElement
$( "#someElement" ).append( $title.text() );
 
// Change the title to "XML Title"
$title.text( "XML Title" );
 
// Append "XML Title" to #anotherElement
$( "#anotherElement" ).append( $title.text() );
