What exactly are you trying to do? Do you want to serialize the hashmap to the client as a Java object, or do you want it converted to xml? What does the consuming end expect? If you really want to produce xml, take a look at one of the many java <-> xml libraries that exists (although, something as simple as your example, you could probably construct the xml "by hand"). A google search should give you more than enough information.
