Question

I am pulling categories from an xml file. I only have 5 categories but the code below keeps pulling categories indifitely! Weird thing, I dont even have a loop in the xml function.

    $.ajax({
        dataType: "xml",
            $(xml).find('row').each(function(){
                var id = $(this).attr('id');
                var CategoryName = $(this).find('CategoryName');
            });

        }
    });

I think the problem is with your use of tabs as opposed to the code that you’ve highlighted.

What’s happening is that some code somewhere is making a GET request to #, which is tantamount to requesting your current page. jQuery then parses the page, processes the scripting contained withing and you get your infinite loop.

Looking at the HTML, I see:

<div class="row-title clear red">
  <div class="tab fleft"><a href="#">Photos</a></div>
  <div class="tab fleft"><a href="#">Videos</a></div>
</div>

I think those are your culprits
