Question

How can I parse the following XML and get values by index? The example below works but it returns all values at once. How do I gain access to each individual node value while inside the Each loop? Is there a way to do it by index?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!---->
<GetAccount>
  <id>free2rhyme</id>
  <password>letmein</password>
  <name>jerry mcguire</name>
  <age>29</age>
  <sex>m</sex>
  <location>salt lake city, utah</location>
  <language>english</language>
  <signup>00/00/0000</signup>
  <confirmed>y</confirmed>
  <status>a</status>
</GetAccount>


$.get('getAccount.xml', null, function (data) {

    var getAccount = $(data).find('GetAccount').each( function(){

    var value = $(this).text();
    alert(value);

    });
}, 'xml');

Answer 1

This will itearte trough all element ‘GetAccount’ subelements and their values:

$.get('getAccount.xml', null, function (data) {
    var getAccountID = $(data).find('GetAccount').each( function(){
      $('*', this).each(function(i,e){
        alert('index='+i+' name='+e.tagName+' value='+$(e).text())
      });
    });
}, 'xml');
