in javascript, How do I extract data from xml in such format?

Question

I understand when the format is in such

<MyML>
  <test1>47.2727</test1>
  <test2>54.3421</test2>
</MyML>

I can use

 $(xmldata).find('MyML').each(function(){
 var currV = $(this).find('test1').text();
 var dateT =   ($(this).find('test2').text();

to get those two values.

But what if the xml format become this?

<MyML>
<test1 val="47.2727"/>
<test2 val="54.3421"/>
</MyML>

and attribute could me more than just two, perhaps test3, test4 or more what command should i use to get all values?

that's Javascript, not PHP. Do you want it in PHP? Or should it be retagged? — Jon Egeland

You should take off the PHP tag, too, since it's not dealing with it here. — Jon Egeland
