get xml element value using url xml

Question

I am trying to get city data from the xml file.
Below one is a url of XML response from which I am getting a latitude and longitude value from the XML response/file.

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=Kenya&sensor=true

and this is my JavaScript code:-

   <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
function load(){
        var reg = "Kenya";
                alert(reg);
                var xml;
                $.ajax({
                  url: "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address="+reg+"&sensor=true",
                  async: false,
                  dataType:'xml',
                  success: function(data)
                {
                    xml=data;
                }
            });
                var lat = $(xml).find('lat:eq(0)').text();
                var lng = $(xml).find('lng:eq(0)').text();  
                var radius = "100000";
                alert(lat);
                alert(lng);
                 $.ajax({
              url: "http://services.gisgraphy.com/geoloc/search?lat="+lat+"&lng="+lng+"&radius="+radius+"&format=json",
              async: false,
              dataType:'jsonp',
              success: function(data)
            {
                var asciiname = data.result[0].asciiName;
                console.log(asciiname);
            }
        });
            }
</script>
<body onload="load()">
</body>

with this I am trying to pass Region name in above url with lat and lang value.

http://services.gisgraphy.com/geoloc/search?lat=-0.0235590&lng=37.9061930&radius=100000.

With this url I am trying to get asciiName.
But it's not working and itss display nothing.
What I am doing wrong. Help me to solve my problem.

You need to write proper sentences (with correct grammar) so that anybody can get the idea at first that what you want to convey? — Smile

Here is your full code details. You're missing some variables like cntry_code and dataType in ajax call. If your question is solved then accept it.

<script>
    function getlg(){
            var cntry_code = 'IN';
            var reg = 'Rajkot';
            var xml;
            $.ajax({
                url: "http://services.gisgraphy.com//geocoding/geocode?address="+reg+"&country="+cntry_code+"&format=json",
                async: false,
                dataType:'jsonp',
                success: function(data){ 
                    var id = data.result[1].id;
                    console.log(id);
                    var lat = data.result[1].lat;
                    console.log(lat);
                    var lng = data.result[1].lng;  
                    console.log(lng);
                    var radius = "100000";
                    $.ajax({
                          url: "http://services.gisgraphy.com/geoloc/search?lat="+lat+"&lng="+lng+"&radius="+radius+"&format=json",
                          async: false,
                          dataType:'jsonp',
                          success: function(data)
                          {
                                for(i=0;i<data.result.length;i++)
                                {
                                    var asciiname = data.result[i].asciiName;
                                    console.log(asciiname);
                                }
                          }
                    });
                }
            });
        }
</script>

I have updated the code. I have added for loop so that you get all asciiName(s).
