1) use togows

http://togows.org/entry/kegg-pathway/eco00020.json

2 ) use a XSLT transformation.

I'm lazy, I don't have processed all the element/nodes. Futhermore, A text should be escaped if if contains a double quote. .e.g: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14217025

Pierre, I really appreciate your help. Apologies, I should have been more specific. I would like to convert a KGML file, example provided in the link (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4c_nAf77KoUZVhQcEFBdUNDN1E/view?usp=sharing) to JSON format similar to this file (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4c_nAf77KoUdk5yeHRWcnItU2M/view?usp=sharing). Essentially, I would like to put the converted JSON file into Escher.

so the solution XML->JSON is xslt.
