convert JSON object to XML using javascript

Question

I want to convert a JSON object to a XML String and I can't figure a proper way to do it. I've found a neat little jQuery plugin called json2xml at https://gist.github.com/c4milo/3738875 but it doesn't escape the data.

How can I escape the data properly so that the browser's XML parser will work?

Solution 1

You can try this small library http://code.google.com/p/x2js/

Solution 2

There is no unique way of doing this. You should be using XML with a schema only, and JSON doesn't have such a schema. Any such transformation when done naively is likely to break.

Why don't you just use XML or JSON consequently?

Solution 3

You can use the external js available by google named x2js.js

You can see the demo over here.
