<p>Thanks</p>

<pre><code>$.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "vMenu.xml",
        dataType: "xml",
        error:function(xhr, status, errorThrown) {
                alert(errorThrown+'\n'+status+'\n'+xhr.statusText);
        },
        success: function(data) {
            alert('success')        ;
        }
    });
</code></pre>

<p>the XML file</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
&lt;?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="vMenu.xsl"?&gt;
&lt;vMenuList&gt;
    &lt;menu loc="menu1.htm"&gt;menu1&lt;/menu&gt;
    &lt;menu loc="menu2.htm"&gt;menu2&lt;/menu&gt;  
    &lt;menu loc="menu3.htm"&gt;menu3&lt;/menu&gt;  
    &lt;menu loc="menu4.htm"&gt;menu4&lt;/menu&gt;  
    &lt;menu loc="menu5.htm"&gt;menu5&lt;/menu&gt;  
    &lt;menu loc="menu6.htm"&gt;menu6&lt;/menu&gt;  
    &lt;menu loc="menu7.htm"&gt;menu7&lt;/menu&gt;  
    &lt;menu loc="menu8.htm"&gt;menu8&lt;/menu&gt;
