FAQ
Can I minify XML?
Yes. Press Minify to remove the whitespace between tags. Text inside elements, comments and CDATA sections are kept.
What does the checker catch?
Mismatched and unclosed tags, closing tags without an opening tag, multiple root elements, text outside the root element, and unclosed comments, CDATA sections and declarations.
Does formatting change my data?
Formatting only changes whitespace between tags. Text inside an element is trimmed, and CDATA sections, comments and declarations are kept exactly as written.
