jQuery Get XML Response Example

The jQuery Get() ajax method supports HTML, XML, JSON and Text type responses sent by the server. In this post we shall see on how to process XML data returned from the server using the jQuery Get() method.

The syntax for receiving and processing XML response is as follows.

$.get("<Server URL>", successHandlerFunction(…));

The following example receives a XML format data from the server and displays the data in a DIV tag in the browser.


.aspx Page (Client Side)
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
    <title>jQuery Ajax Load</title>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="JavaScript/jquery-1.7.2.js"></script>
    <script
        type="text/javascript"
        language="javascript">
        $(document).ready(function() {
            // Get XML Response data from the Server
            $('#btnGetXML').click(function(event) {
                event.preventDefault();
                var nameList = "";
                $.get("AjaxData.xml", function(result) {
                    $(result).find("Name").each(function() {
                        nameList = nameList + $(this).text() + "<br />";
                    });
                    $("#divXML").html(nameList);
                }
                );
            });
        });
    </script>                 
</head>
<body>
    <form id="frmAjax" runat="server">
    <table border="1">
        <tr>
            <td><b>Action</b></td>
            <td><b>Response</b></td>
        </tr>
            <tr valign="middle">
                <td>
                    <asp:Button
                        ID="btnGetXML"
                        runat="server"
                        Text="Get XML" />
                </td>
                <td align="center">
                    <br /><div id="divXML"></div> 
                </td>
            </tr>
    </table>
    </form>
</body>
</html>
