Features
--------

* Easy XML to JS-Object conversion like JSON to JS-Object
* Written in Pure-Javascipt (standalone - no framework like jQuery or MooTools required!)
* Supports XML-Documents (from AJAX/XHR Requests) as well as XML-Strings
* Smart-Mode automatically merges nodes+attributes for a much easier handling of config files
* Ultra lightweight: only 3.9kB of Code (uncompressed); 1.64kB (yui compressed)
* Well commented sourcecode allows easy user modifications/custom extensions
* Native integration into MooTools (Object.fromXML)

Demo
----
The following Examples require the `JSON.stringify` method (supported by all modern browsers)

* [Example](http://static.andidittrich.de/XmlToJsObject/Example.html)
* [MooTools Example](http://static.andidittrich.de/XmlToJsObject/Example.MooTools.html)

Browser compatibility
---------------------
The XmlToJsObject Utility requires the [DOMParser](http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_parser.asp) object. If you want to support earlier versions of the InternetExplorer you can write a [fallback](http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_parser.asp) using `new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")` instead of the DOMParser.
