Is it possible to get Yahoo search results in XML form?

HTML is most certainly not XML, and they are barely related.

Also, now that (most) browsers have native JSON parsing, I would advise using that if possible, as it is a hell of a lot easier (assuming the environment is a web browser, rather than a desktop-based application).

Yup, I need to parse it. I need it in a project.

Like for example, if I search "League Of Legends" in a custom search box, it would search in yahoo as "League Of Legends site:www.thehelper.net".. and it needs to parse the results in xml like this:

Code:
<response>
 <search>
  <title>title 1</title>
  <url>http://searchresult.com/blahblah</url>
 </search>
 <search>
  <title>title 2</title>
  <url>http://searchresult.com/blahblah</url>
 </search>
</response>

If it can be done with JSON, then so be it..

Note: I don't know how to use JSON yet.. But I'll do my best to learn it if it can be outputted that way.

JSON is basically JavaScript objects. JSON literally means JavaScript Object Notation. Here is the best place to learn about it.

One thing I did find by a quick Google, was this. It's not Yahoo (and in fact is Google), but it might be want you are looking for.
