i want to make render xml for an complex object
ex
      make render :xml => posters
poster = [name, post_id,created_at, ....]
post = [title, body,created_at, ....]

and i want the render output to be

<posters>
    <poster>
        <name>
            name
        </name>
        <post>
            <title>
                title
            </title>
            <body>
                body
            </body>
        </post>
        ...
        ...
    </poster>
    ...
    ...
</posters>

You could have in your ../app/views/posters/
a file

index.xml.builder

which may be automatically called when the
request needs to render XML. The file
could start like this:

xml.instruct!
xml.posters do
@posters.each do |poster|
xml.poster(...
...
end
end
end

Check out Google for "xml builder Ruby"
and this project from Jim Weirich.

HTH,
