The following code snippet can loop through the <book> element and output the value of the category attribute:
xmlDoc=loadXMLDoc("books.xml");
var x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('book');
for(i=0;i<x.length;i++)
{
var att=x.item(i).attributes.getNamedItem("category");
document.write(att.value + "<br />")
}
