在javascript中解析xml

Question

I need to create custom objects based on an XML input, the rule is that for every node if it has a direct child node is named EndNode and the text value of which is 1 , then I create a leaf object. So for every node, I need to check the direct child with name EndNode and its value. It's not so easy with the DOM API and DOM selector (in this case I use Ext.DomQuery ) doesn't have a way to select direct child of the root node... Below is my attempt for using DOM selector, I need to wrap the node around with another level of the node for the selector to work. But I can't just say new Node() , it silently fails. I guess I have to walk through n.childNodes , but it is complicated to do it this way to check the rule I described above. Any solution?

Ext.each(node.childNodes, function(n){
    if (n.nodeType == this.XML_NODE_ELEMENT) {
        var tmp=new Node();
        console.log('hi');
        tmp.appendChild(n);
        console.log(Ext.DomQuery.select(n.tagName+">EndNode", tmp));
    }
}

I did an xml parser. It is quite easy with Dojo's library. Here ya are. When you're done with it though I recommend exporting the var to JSON and using it as cache.

dojo.require("dojox.xml.parser");
var parser = dojox.xml.parser;
function crules() { 
    this.rules = new Array();
    this.xml = Object;
} 
xml = '';
crules.prototype.load = function(file){
    var xmlget = dojo.xhrGet({
        url: file,
        handleAs: "xml",
        load: function(data){
            xml = data;
        },
        error: function (error) {
            console.error ('Error: ', error);
        },
        sync: true
    }
    );
    this.xml = xml;
}
crules.prototype.buildout = function (){
    var rules = this.xml.getElementsByTagName('ruleset');
    //dojo.byId('jsloading').innerHTML = 'Loading Javascript';
    for(var i=0; i<rules.length; i++){
        //dojo.byId('jsloading').innerHTML += ' .';
        r = new cruleset();
        r.name = xtagvalue(rules[i],'name');
        base = xtag(rules[i],'base');
        textcustom = xtag(rules[i],'textcustom');
        r.textcustomy = xtagvalue(textcustom[0],'y');
        r.textcustomx = xtagvalue(textcustom[0],'x');
        for(var j=0; j<base.length; j++){
            r.bases[j] = new cbase();
            r.bases[j].imgsrc = xtagvalue(base[j],'imgsrc');
            r.bases[j].color = xtagvalue(base[j],'color');
            r.bases[j].coloropts = new Array();
            var copts = xtag(rules[i],'option');
            for(var k=0; k<copts.length;k++){
                var cc = new Object();
                cc.color = xtagvalue(copts[k],'color');
                cc.imgsrc = xtagvalue(copts[k],'imgsrc');
                r.bases[j].coloropts.push(cc);
            }
        }
        zones = xtag(rules[i],'zone');
        for(var j=0; j<zones.length; j++){
            z = new czone();
            z.name =xtagvalue(zones[j],'name');
            zoneconfigs = xtag(zones[j],'zoneconfig');
            for(var n=0; n<zoneconfigs.length; n++){
                zc = new czoneconfig();
                zc.name = z.name;
                zc.x1 =xtagvalue(zones[j],'x1');
