Thanks again for the help, Dan!
In this snippet:
$("record", xml).each(function() {
var rid = $("record_id_", this).text();
var name = $("function_name", this).text();
var type = $("result_type", this).text();
console.log(rid, name, type);
});
Why are we required to select BOTH 'record' and 'xml' in order to access those 3 elements, if those 3 elements are only a part of a record. If we are selecting two separate elements (in this case, record and xml) why doesn't this iterate through 'rid', 'name', and 'type' for both selections? It seems as though these selections are linked, but how? Aren't they distinct elements?
i.e. Why doesn't this work?:
$("record").each(function() { ... });Another question. In each record of the XML response I have a field [Event Time] that stores a time. But this time is simply a large numeric number. How do I convert this numeric number to a duration?
i.e. 1. numDifference = numericNum1 - numericNum2
2. convert numDifference to duration
Would this work?
