How to response data as xml in node.js instead of json

Question

I'm new to node.js and trying to convert my spring mvc restful webservice on Node.js. I managed to succeed up to certain extent but one show stopper for me is, that My consumer is a html5 based phoneapp and can consume only xml based response, but in Node.js I m getting only json response. Please refer the below code snippet.

exports.area = function(client, res) {
    client
            .query(
                    "select * from storeinfo",
                    function(err, results, fields) {

                        if (err) {
                            throw err;
                        }                                                                   
                        res.json(results);
                        //res.send(results);                        


                    });
};

Please let me know how to response text as xml instead of json(res.json(results)).

Please refer the link to know the format of xml I required as response.
