[DriverX]

some.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <test>

<item>

<image>

<src>IEbug1</src>

</image>

</item> <item>

<image>

<src>IEbug2</src>

</image>

</item> <item>

<image>

<src>IEbug3</src>

</image>

</item> <item>

<image>

<src>IEbug4</src>

</image>

</item> <item>

<image>

<src>IEbug5</src>

</image>

</item>

</test>

load and parse xml:

$.get("some.xml", function(data){

alert($(data).find("item").eq(0).find("image src").length); need 1, but in IE length == 5

});

Please do some further debugging, using the forum if needed: ​http://forum.jquery.com .

Most likely, your $.get from the server is returning a data type other than xml, in which case you cannot use $() to convert it to xml.
