Inside an ajax event dollar sign operator does not return xmlDocument tag

[[email protected]…]

Inside an ajax event; i.e.

$.ajax({  
    type: "POST",
    contentType: "application/xml",
    url: "getUrsip.irpt",
    data: "ursip=" + siparis.value,
    complete: function( transport ) {
        xml = transport.responseXML;
        $( "kunnr" ).value = $( "KUNNR", xml );
    }
);

$("KUNNR", xml); returns null parameter even xml has a xml formated document..

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report.

We require that all bug reports include a valid reduced test case, which reproduces the issue you are experiencing, on ​http://jsfiddle.net.
As such a test case is missing from the report I made one based on your description. This ​live test case works for me like expected.

After checking your report and making a test case I think that there is no bug and that your problem is most likely caused by something else. I close this ticket, but feel free to report back with a valid reduced test case showing the bug and demand the reopening of this ticket

A few notes:

• in the code you pasted a curly closing bracket is missing
• you set contentType to application/xml but data is a non XML string
• are you sure the XML returned by the server is valid XML
• did you try using the error callback to check if there is and/or what the error is
