客户端上的XML到JavaScript哈希/数组

Question

Any client js libraries for turning XML into a JavaScript object? I'm specifically working with RSS and ATOM XML.

I don't want to go from XML to JSON then eval().

I'd like to go from XML directly to JavaScript hashes/arrays.

Answer 1

Try adobe's spry framework.

they have a dataset object that does exactly this.

Answer 2

Have you looked at the Google AJAX Feed API ?

I use it all the time and you don't need to register for am API key anymore

Answer 3

You can use Yahoo Pipes if the source of the XML is an online feed somewhere. This will gice you a JSON object that you can access like eg data[x].propertyName

Using eval() isn't madatory for processing JSON ;)
