Heres how I figured it out, first handcraft xml, then print Dumper, then feed to XMLout

#!/usr/bin/perl -- 

use strict;
use warnings;


use XML::Simple;
use Data::Dumper;

my $xml = q~<?xml version='1.0'?>
<terminalversioncount>
    <Phones>
      <Count>2</Count>
      <Manufacturer>Sony</Manufacturer>
      <Model>SE1</Model>
      <Version>M94</Version>
    </Phones>
    <Phones>
      <Count>3</Count>
      <Manufacturer>Sony3</Manufacturer>
      <Model>SE13</Model>
      <Version>M943</Version>
    </Phones>
</terminalversioncount>~;

print $xml,$/;
print Dumper( XMLin($xml));
my $VAR1 = {
          'Phones' => [
                      {
                        'Version' => 'M94',
                        'Count' => '2',
                        'Manufacturer' => 'Sony',
                        'Model' => 'SE1'
                      },
                      {
                        'Version' => 'M943',
                        'Count' => '3',
                        'Manufacturer' => 'Sony3',
                        'Model' => 'SE13'
                      }
                    ]
        };

print XMLout($VAR1, NoAttr=>1,RootName=>'terminalversioncount',XMLDecl
+ => 1);

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
