I cannot select <title> tag in Atom XML using jQuery

问题

I get Atom data through Ajax using jQuery.

I write

$(xhr).find('entry id').eq(0).html();

is OK.

But

$(xhr).find('entry title').eq(0).html();

can not select anything.

title tag is actually exist.

Please help. Thank you!

That is because there is no title element in the Atom XML. The actual name is atom:title if the XML namespace http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom was mapped to the namespace prefix atom.

Your problem is that jQuery is a HTML library, not an XML library. Therefore, it has some shortcomings when it comes to handling real XML data.

What you need is a plugin. This IBM developerworks article should give you some idea what I'm talking about and how to solve it.
