Base64 decoding and converting to xml

programming web dev

Hi frnds,

I am working on a task where I have to convert the Flex application to HTML5.

I am stuck at the very first step where the Flex application is provided a Base64 encoded string and application converts it to xml. (The Base64 encoded string is XML)

Following is the code used in Flex

Base64.toXML(unescape("eNrtXMmS28gRvfsraniyDyXWvky0egKrRhGa8XissA8TEx1YCmpYJNEGQG0n/4b/wt/gT"));

This is the function in Flex used to convert Base64 encoded string to XML.


toXML(input:String, uncompress:Boolean = true):XML
{
    var xml:XML;
    var arr:ByteArray = Base64.decode(input);
    if(uncompress) arr.uncompress();
    arr.position = 0;
    xml = new XML(arr.readUTFBytes(arr.length))
    return xml;
}

I could find the base64Decode function in JQuery but how should I convert the decoded string to XML. I have been searching all over the net but could not find anything.

Any help is appreciated.
