Can't read external xml file on jquery

I am developing an app via phonegap and I must read an external xml file which have a lot of important information for my app.

I tried the code below, but I am getting an annoying error. After searching everywhere I did not find any solutions.

The jquery code:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $.ajax({
        url: 'http://servicos.cptec.inpe.br/XML/cidade/233/condicoesAtuaisUV.xml',
        success: function(data) {
            console.log('ok')
        },
        error: function() {
           console.log('problem')
        }
    });
});

The damm error:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://servicos.cptec.inpe.br/XML/cidade/233/condicoesAtuaisUV.xml. (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing).

I read that it is necessary to enable CORS, but how do I do that?

Thanks for the attention!

On Phonegap, you need to use a white list to access more than one server. The CORS advice you are getting is the correct theme, but not the correct solution - for phonegap.

NOTE: read carefully on this. Many people have been tripped up. There is a difference. As of this month (July 2015), versions after 4.0 and leading edge version will REQUIRE a plugin. (I don't have all the correct details on this, so you'll have to read.)
