display "raw" xml in jqxwindow

[kathylParticipant]

I am displaying an xml file in a jqxwindow. The xml file is displayed with no carriage returns/newlines. If I display the file via an alert, it displays fine – with all the xml tags, etc, which is exactly what I want. I’d prefer to use jqxwindow though for lots of reasons.
I currently get the data via ajax to display it:

		$.ajax({
			type: "GET",
			url: value,
			dataType: "xml",
			success: function(data, status, jqXHR){  
				$('#windowHeader').show();
				$('#windowContent').show();					
				$("#jqxwindow").jqxWindow('open');      			                      
				var response = '';                        
				response = jqXHR.responseText;                                                                     
        		$('#windowContent').text(response);

I’ve tried wrapping the responseText in <textarea>, <xmp> and

 tags, all without luck.  Any ideas how I can display these files in jqxWindow?  Thanks-

Hi kathyl,

You can replace the new lines with <br /> tags.
You can use RegExp similar to this:
response.replace(new RegExp('\r?\n','g'), '<br />');

unfortunately, all that does is display the text with <br /> in it…. Here is a sample:

<?xml version="1.0"?><br /><!DOCTYPE nmaprun><br /><?xml-stylesheet href="file:///usr/bin/../share/nmap/nmap.xsl" type="text/xsl"?><br /><!-- Nmap 6.47 scan initiated Fri Dec 11 19:17:30 2015 as: nmap -PN -T5 -oX test.xml -vv --top-ports 280 xxxx.com --><br /><nmaprun scanner="nmap" args="nmap -PN -T5 -oX test.com.xml -vv --top-ports 280 ........

And this is how I am calling it:

$("#jqxwindow").jqxWindow('open');      			
var response = '';                        
response += jqXHR.responseText;  
response = response.replace(/\r?\n/g, "<br  />");    
$('#windowContent').text(response);

Hi kathyl,

This is a simplified demo of this approach.
You can make the formatting more complex, depending of your needs.
