FAQ
- How does the XML formatter handle errors?
- The formatter uses the browser's built-in DOMParser to parse XML. If the XML is malformed, the parser returns a parsererror element and the tool displays the error message, showing you exactly what went wrong.
- Does it support XML namespaces and attributes?
- Yes, the formatter preserves all namespaces, attributes, and processing instructions exactly as they appear in the source. Only whitespace between elements is adjusted for readability.
- Can I format large XML files?
- The tool handles XML files up to several megabytes directly in the browser without sending data to any server. For very large files, formatting may take a moment as parsing is done client-side.
The XML Formatter parses your XML and outputs it with consistent indentation, making deeply nested elements easy to read. Uses DOMParser to validate structure and then serializes with manual indentation. Detects parse errors and reports them clearly. Ideal for working with APIs, configuration files, SOAP responses, and data feeds.
