Retrieving xml data

I have one team out of a hold league roster with stats. If I can get one right I can duplicate this and use it for every other team I have alot of xml code to reference And I am getting better at handling xml. But of course I also run into the issUE i GOT NOW XML is laid out different from my samples To start I can't even get out of the starting Gate I start off with top attrib called message and need to strip Image with teamid and title. Then I was going to do the players stats and then clone. But I using Fire Bug and I can't get intro data.

What is wrong?

As you can see I can't get started Why?
Flyers.html
ADX-INDSTATS-PHI.xml

work for me :

You mainly forget the # to select element by their id :
$('#title1') and not $('title1')

leakim971 Thanks you pointed me in the right direction. I make newbie mistakes like
teamid1 is a DIV, why should it dislay a logo? Because you set it's "src" attribute?

I used a team logo and viewed the page and there it was the Flyers Logo. Now I'm out of the starting gate running.
