XML parsing in jquery doesn't seem to work for me

Question

I have a static html page weather.html

Answer 1

You cannot access distant domains using AJAX. See Same Origin Policy. You are trying to access a script located on google.com, so unless this is page is on hosted on this same domain it won't work. The only way to make this work is to setup a proxy server script on your server to which you will send the AJAX call and it will delegate the call to google.com. Another alternative is to use JSONP but the distant script needs to support it.
