Parsing XML file using jquery dynamically

Question

I know the below question is very common , but i cant help myself posting here , since am little confused of what am doing in my code ...

I am sending an AJAX request and getting XML as response , As of now am parsing it based on the tag name like below :

$(xml).find('Details').each(function(){
                        //email=$(this).find('Email').text();
                         $tbl.append($('<tr>').append(

                             $('<td>').text($(this).find('name').text()),
                             $('<td>').text($(this).find('LastName').text()),
                             $('<td>').text($(this).find('City').text()),
                             $('<td>').html("<a href='insert.jsp?email="+$(this).find('Email').text()+"&mode=Search"+" ' >"+$(this).find('Email').text()+"</a>"),
                             $('<td>').html("<a href='MyServlet?email="+$(this).find('Email').text()+"&mode=Delete"+" ' >"+"Delete"+"</a>")
                             ));
                });

The functionality what am trying to do is absolutely working fine ,

Problem :

And i have to use only jquery : any kind of help is appreciable .. Thank You

Take a look through the Traversing API

There are quite a few functions where you can parse and move through the XML without actually knowing the tags. Some key ones for you would be children() next() siblings() and as you already know each()

I think this might help you, do check the jquery plug-in and also basic jquery-xml-parser.
