Question

I want to get a xml param (‘fileSrc’) in jquery.
What I should do?

My jquery code:

$xml = $("#my_xml_iframe").contents();
//convert object to string or search for fileSrc
alert($xml);


My iframe:

<iframe id="my_xml_iframe" src="myFile.xml"></iframe>


My xml (in iframe):

<reponse>
<fileSrc>photo123.jpg</fileSrc>
</response>


I need code for search a object or convert to string. Anyone can help me?
btw: sorry for my english.

Try this:

// get iframe html code
var xml = $("#my_xml_iframe").contents().find('body').html();
alert(xml);

// use regular expression to get the fileSrc
var pattern = /\<fileSrc\>(.*)\<\/fileSrc\>/i;
var fileSrc = pattern.exec(xml)[1];
alert(fileSrc);
