javascript - Finding an object in an XML database, feeding it's info to relevant DOM elements -


apologies if title not make sense; i'm little new , not sure smartest way phrase is.

i have page has row of movie posters @ top. clicking 1 of them should:

  • open xml file ajax
  • find object in xml file same name movie poster clicked
  • populate "template" in page, using movie info found within xml object

here example snippet of xml:

<movies> <movie name="se7en">     <title>se7en</title>     <quote>ernest hemingway once wrote;<br>“the world fine place , worth fighting for.”<br>i agree second part.</quote>     <showing>aug 28, 3:45pm</showing>     <rating>r</rating>     <year>1995</year>     <length>127 minutes</length>     <genre>thirller</genre>     <staring1>brad pitt</staring1>     <staring2>morgan freeman</staring2>     <staring3>gwyneth paltrow</staring3>     <staring4></staring4>     <slogan>7 deadly sins. 7 ways die.</slogan>     <synopsis><p>set in hellish vision of new york-like city, raining , air crackles impending death, film concerns detective william somerset (morgan freeman), homicide specialist 1 week well-deserved retirement.</p><p>but somerset’s retirement must wait 1 last case, teamed young hotshot david mills (brad pitt), fiery det­ective set replace him @ end of week. mills has talked reluctant wife, tracy (gwyneth paltrow), moving big city can tackle important cases, first , somerset’s last more either man has bargained for. diabolical serial killer staging grisly murders, choosing victims representing 7 deadly sins. somerset refuses take case, realizing there 5 more murders, ghastly sermons lust, sloth, pride, wrath, , envy presented madman sinful world. within him cannot let case go, forcing weary detective team mills , see case unspeakably horrible conclusion.</p></synopsis> </movie> <movie name="thegame">     <title>the game</title>     <quote>foobar</quote>     <showing>foobar</showing>     <rating>foobar</rating>     <year>foobar</year>     <length>foobar</length>     <genre>foobar</genre>     <staring1>foobar</staring1>     <staring2>foobar</staring2>     <staring3>foobar</staring3>     <staring4>foobar</staring4>     <slogan>foobar</slogan>     <synopsis>foobar</synopsis> </movie> </movies>

so, when clicking on movie poster "se7en", need find movie object name of "se7en" in xml document. take content of <title> tags under "se7en" object, , put relevant dom element. then, take content of <quote> tags under "se7en" object, , put relevant dom element, etc, etc.

so, setup ajax request via

var nospace = $(this).attr('data-title').replace(/\w/g,'').tolowercase();  var moviereq = new xmlhttprequest(); moviereq.open("get","movies.xml?m="+nospace,true); moviereq.send(); moviexml = moviereq.responsexml;

(nospace movie poster's name searching xml relevant <movie> object for)

but then, how search moviexml <movie name=nospace> , pull it's information?

as mentioned, i've never done xmlhttprequest before, , having trouble understanding how works. there better way accomplish overall task i'm trying do? should using json instead of xml? have no idea how best done.

i have experience loading divs html document using 

$('#xyz').load('foo.html #bar');

, i'm not sure if applies in anyway i'm doing here.

javascript - Complete OpenIDConnect auth when requesting via Ajax -

the normal openidconnect server works like: you go a.com/secure-resource you 302 server your browser handles , sends identity server you login there it sends a.com via post you logged in on a.com , a.com/secure-resource on browser. however have scenario i'm trying solve need help. the user logged in on idserver the user logged in on a.com the user not logged in on b.com we need send ajax call web server b.com (from domain a.com ) b.com configured use openidconnect. but because request b.com via ajax, user cannot redirected idserver. (all in response 302 ) we can go ahead , handle 302 via ajax (i'm still not sure whether work, security-wise). but is there scenario in identityserver/openidconnect designed these situations? with identityserver in scenario setup server b.com use bearer token authentication, need use access token provided a.com in headers of ajax call $.ajax({ url: 'http://b.com', headers: { ...
