DataType Utility: DataType.XML.parse()
The XML module of the DataType Utility allows you to take a string and convert it to an XML document.
To convert a string to an XML document, simply call the parse()
function of the DataType.Number class:
YUI().use("datatype-xml", function(Y) { var output = Y.DataType.XML.parse("<myroot><item type='foo'><name>Abc</name><rank>1</rank></item><item type='bar'><name>Def</name><rank>2</rank></item><item type='bat'><name>Ghi</name><rank>3</rank></item></myroot>"); // output is an XML document });
YUI().use("datatype-xml", function(Y) { var output = Y.DataType.XML.parse("<myroot><item type='foo'><name>Abc</name><rank>1</rank></item><item type='bar'><name>Def</name><rank>2</rank></item><item type='bat'><name>Ghi</name><rank>3</rank></item></myroot>"); // output is an XML document });
