How to read xml file contents in jQuery and display in html elements?

I am new to Jquery.I am trying to read data from “sampleXML.xml” file and display that data in Html “li” elements. so far I have done is, I have created html file as follows:file name-“Cloudtags.html”:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
    <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"> </script>
    <script  src=Cloudtags.js></script>
    <title>Css Globe: tag clouds</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Cloudtags.css">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script>

</head>

<body>

<div id="container">    
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cssglobe.com/ads/blogsponsor.js"></script>

    <div id="side">
        <div class="tags">
            <ul class="cld">
                <li class="tag1" id="java"><a href="https://www.google.com">google</a></li> 
                <li class="tag2"><a href="#">Chiessy</a></li>
                <li class="tag3"><a href="#">sitemap</a></li>
                <li class="tag2"><a href="#">Sales</a></li>
                <li class="tag4" ><a href="#">Gohome</a></li>
                <li class="tag1"id="temp"><a href="#">Movies</a></li>
                <li class="tag1"><a href="#">It Jobz</a></li>
                <li class="tag5"><a href="#">Alza</a></li>
                <li class="tag2"><a href="#">Sea food</a></li>
                <li class="tag1"><a href="#">Hospital</a></li>
                <li class="tag3"><a href="#">Smart phone</a></li>
                <li class="tag4"><a href="#">Pizza </a></li>
                <li class="tag1"><a href="#">Aerobics</a></li>
                <li class="tag5"><a href="#">Yahoo...</a></li>
                <li class="tag1"><a href="#">Anti-Virus</a></li>
                <li class="tag2"><a href="#">Travel</a></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div id="xmldata"></div>

</div><br>
</body>
</html>

and this is my .js file:

$(document).ready(function() {
    var nm;
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET" ,
        url: "sampleXML.xml" ,
        dataType: "xml" ,
        success: function(xml) {
            $(xml).find('person').each(function() {
                nm= $(this).text()
                $("#temp").html(nm);
            }
        }
    });
});

My xml file is as follows:

<?xml version='1.0' ?>
<doc>
  <person>
    <name>sachin</name>
    <age>21</age>
  </person>
  <person>
    <name>Akash</name>
    <age>18</age>
  </person>
</doc>

But this does not work. Do I need to link some external file for “$.ajax” . So ,please tell me where I’m making mistake . . thanks in advance . .
