Converting XML to JSON

C# and .net are a very XML oriented technology suite (Hello .net), however HTML5 apps aren’t. Unfortunatly there is no direct translation which can be successfully applied between the two formats. JSON lacks attributes (a=b) and multiple objects (See <Item> in the example below).

Even if we consider the subset of XML used within our add (No….) then life is still non-trivial.

Attribute representing in JSON

<XML a=b>
    <Item>
        Text
    <\Item>
    <Item>
        Text
    <\Item>
<\XML>

Becomes

{
    "_" : 
        {
            A: B
        },

    Item: {
        Text: null
        }
}
