Loading XML from file and parsing?

I have searched and searched and can't figure out why this code wont load an XML element into the


. I'm trying to load the XML from a file, read for a specific element and put it's data into a specific element.



HTML:



<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
<script

$(document).ready(function(){
$.ajax({

url: "score1.xml" ,
dataType: "xml" ,
success: function(xml) {
var xmlDoc = $.parseXML( xml ),
$xml = $( xmlDoc );
$home = $xml.find( "home" );
$( "#home" ).text( $home.text() );
}
});
});

score1.xml:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><score><home>22</home></score>

  • No JS errors, all running through XAMPP. No console errors.

  • Did you try putting a breakpoint inside the success callback and inspect the xml value?

Just remove the parseXML line and it works perfectly:



$(document).ready(function() {
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "score1.xml",
dataType: "xml",
success: function(xml) {
var $xml = $(xml);
$home = $xml.find("home");
$("#home").text($home.text());
}
});
});


I've removed this line:



var xmlDoc = $.parseXML(xml);


And now it works perfectly.
