Get request in Youtube API

I'm trying to access the top ten trending videos of youtube using their API's. On their website it says use the get request to the link https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/standardfeeds/on_the_web. How would I implement this in Javascript and how exactly would I store the results? Would it be in an array?

Thanks in advance!

To issue get request you may use jQuery: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.get/

The result will be text of HTML page (it comes in get request callback). To make it into array you should parse it yourself. Since the page is simple, I think regular expressions will be enough: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions
