find doesn't work in IE but works fine in Firefox

Reported by: ericerau Owned by:
Priority: minor Milestone: 1.3
Component: ajax Version: 1.2.6

Blocked by: Blocking:

Description

var s = "<Orders>" +

" <Order>" + " <OrderNo>12345</OrderNo>" + " <Path>this is the path value</Path>" + " <Base64>asdfasdfasdf.....sgdfgsdfg</Base64>" + " </Order>" + "</Order>";

alert($(s).find('Path').text())

This doesn't work in IE, but works fine in firefox. The code has been modified to do the test. In reality I didn't build the xml string like that. It was the result of a web service call. I considered a blocker because it makes the application unusable for Ajax. I have a post for this on experts exchange, check it out here:

Yes, most likely IE is not happy trying to parse XML with its tag-soup parser. Try using the technique in the link above and reopen the ticket if a proper XML parser doesn't fix the issue.
