    you can not get xml cross domain in javascript due to cross domain policies…there are 100’s of similar threads on SO

    You can use a proxy if API doesn’t deliver jsonp. Another handy tool is Yahoo YQL. They have a sandbox console can set your url up in minutes and get a YQL url to get data from in choice of xml or jsonp
