# Example: Y.XML.format()

The XML module of the DataType Utility allows you to take an XML document and convert it to a string.

To output an XML document as a string, simply call the `format()` function of the Y.XML class:

    YUI().use("datatype-xml", function(Y) {
        var xmlString =
            '<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>Ghhi</name>' +
                    '<rank>3</rank>' +
                '</item>' +
            '</myroot>';

        var myXMLDoc = Y.XML.parse(xmlString);

        alert(Y.XML.format(myXMLDoc));
    });
