Using Jquery ?

Question

I have been trying

to build the tutorial using Jquery but it does not Work. Ajax using Jquery only works for Local Files not for Remote while WinJS XHR works

$.get('http://theverge.com/rss/index.xml',function(data){
console.log('Data is Here');
});

Is there a workaround for Jquery Ajax to Work.

Edit: I have found the way to parse request data from WinJS XHR. The request data is a promise Object. You need to pick up the XML Data returned.
However, Jquery Ajax for Cross Domain is still not working for me 

var $xml= $(request.xml);

If I use WinJS.xhr to do cross domain Ajax, then i process data using Jquery but that does not work either

function processPosts(request){
var $xml = request.responseXML.selectNodes("//item");
$xml.find("item").each(function() {
        var $this = $(this),
            item = {
                title: $this.find("title").text(),
                link: $this.find("link").text(),
                description: $this.find("description").text(),
                pubDate: $this.find("pubDate").text(),
                author: $this.find("author").text()
        }
        //Do something with item here...
    });
}

Kindly, Guide me  .....

Hi Engineer Head,

When you debug this code, what is not working?  Do you get XML back?  Is it the parsing that is not working?

replace the following

 var $this = $(this),

line with 

 
var $this = $(this);
you were missing the ';'. Hope that helps!
