jquery XML not working

Question

I am using a blogger xml feed but it won't work, could someone aid me as to where i have gone wrong or what is missing.

$(document).ready(function () {
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2399953/posts/default",
        dataType: "xml",
        success: xmlParser
    });
});

function xmlParser(xml) { 
    $(xml).find("entry").each(function () {
        $(".entirecont").append($(this).find('title').text());
    });
}

you need some kind of server side language to read and save xml on your server and then you can read it — COLD TOLD

You are trying to access a domain out side of yours. Try creating a proxy on your server to retrieve the xml. Browser's don't allow for cross domain access in javascript.

You need jsonp data type to be able to access cross domain ajax call. See the example below and check out what is jsonp in http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/wa-aj-jsonp1/

$(document).ready(function () {
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2399953/posts/default",
        dataType: "xml",
        success: xmlParser,
        dataType: "jsonp" // add this line
    });
});

hope it helps
