I already tried several methods getting my xml-script parsed in java, but i can’t figure it out!

I have 2 files.
mysql_get.php is returning an XML script if it is called.
post_alert.html is fetching the XML script from mysql_get.php over jQuery $.post(..) as shown below:

function init2() {

    var response;
    $.post("mysql_get.php", function (data) {
        response = data;
        alert(response)
    });
    var xml;
    xml = $.parseXML(response);
    alert($(response).find("item").each(function () {
        $(this).attr("id")
    }));
}

After hit a button which call init2(), i get the response message in xml style as i can see by the alert popup.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="uft-8"?>
<root>
<collection collection="locationPoint">
    <item id="1">
        <latitude>23.4442</latitude>
        <longitude>51.2341</longitude>
    </item>

    <item id="2">
        <latitude>2849.24</latitude>
        <longitude>213.132</longitude>
    </item>
</collection>

But the alert doesn’t popup “1” in addition as I wished for correct parsing.

What am I doing wrong?

    Here are a couple of things:
    Line 1 of you xml file should read UTF-8 not UFT-8
    Line 2 should be deleted, else make sure you have a closing tag, invalid xml

    Then here is a little example that I hope helps:

    <html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="dc"></div>
    </body>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $.ajax({
                url: 'mysql_get.php',
                type: 'post',
                dataType: 'xml',
                success: function(data) {
                    $(data).find('item').each(function () {
                        $('#dc').append($(this).attr('id') + '<br/>')
                    });
                },
                error: function(data) {
                    $('#dc').html('error');
                }
            });
        });
    </script>
</html>
