jquery problem where the returned data from an XML file seems inaccessible
- by squeaker
Hi all,
I'm using an xml file to generate some links which i would like to then be able to click on to populate an input box:
$(xmlResponse).find('types').each(function(){
var id = $(this).attr('id');
var type = $(this).find('type').text();
$('<span title=\"'+type+'\" class=\"type\">'+type+'</span>').appendTo('#types');
});
$('span.type').click(function() {
var title = $(this).attr('title');
$("input[name='type']").val(title);
});
But for some reason clicking on the liks does not populate the input box. It does work if the span is hard coded into the page for example:
<span title="text to populate" class="type">test</span>
I'm guessing that the XML is not getting loaded into the DOM in the right way (or something like that)
Any Ideas?
