CANNOT FIND ELEMENTS OF NODES IN XML

[no]

Hi, i try to find some data in my xml file. i would like to find test:company

This is the XML:

<Datei>
  <test:company>
    <Headline>1. first headline</Headline>
    <Content>1. first text</Content>
    <Footer>1. first footer</Footer>
  </test:company>
  <test:company>
    <Headline>2. second headline</Headline>
    <Content>2. second text</Content>
    <Footer>2. second footer</Footer>
  </test:company>
</Datei>

The code:

$(xml).find('[nodeName=test:company]').each(function(){
//Do something
})

i also tested:

$(xml).find('test\\\\:company, company').each(function(){
//Do something
})

and

$(xml).find("test\\:company, company").each(function(){
//Do something
})

The Problem is the Do something code is not being reached

$(xml) does not parse XML. $.parseXML() parses XML. I don't know whether your namespace works everywhere, but fix that first.

There is no nodeName attribute in the markup so that should not work.

Not sure where the "test" namespace comes from.

This works for me: ​http://jsfiddle.net/dmethvin/FbSmh/

Please ask for help on a forum.
