Tree to XML

[rhymejerky]

I have a tree structure that represents the network topology and would like to display this tree on a browser. One thing that came to my mind is XML. I can expand and collapse the topology in a browser. Is this a good way to go? If it is, what cpan module is available for going from Tree data to XML. I saw a lot of XML parser on cpan.org, but not the other way around. If this is not a good way to go, is there an appl (open source, of course ) available that does this?

Thanks a lot!!

You could have a look at XML::Simple. It reads XML into, and writes XML from, a tree of hashes and arrays. It's easy to use but lightweight, not preserving element ordering or whitespace.
