Question

I am using jquery Get request to retrieve data from a web service. The web service sends me back xml data such as <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<boolean xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">false</boolean>
How can I take this data and parse through it, also what if there are multiple nodes? can i convert this to json or something more readable and easy to parse? Thanks for any help

$.ajax({
                    type: "Get",
                    method: "GET",
                    url: "https://domain/MainService.asmx/LoginMobile",
                    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                    data: parameter,
                    dataType: "jsonp"

EDIT: Here is my call. I would like to receive json data but this is coming back as xml.

 [WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
    public bool LoginMobile(string userName, string password)
    {
        return Users.GetLoginInfo(userName, password);
    }

EDIT:Webservice Method

Answer 1

if you want json then the best way would be to configure the server to send json

you can use .parseXML

$.get("/path.php",function(data){
 var $xml = $(data).parseXML();
});
