XML Formatter/Validator

Instructions on Use

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a format for structuring data. This tool helps you make XML code easier to read and checks it for common syntax errors.

1. Paste your raw or minified XML into the "Enter your XML" box.
2. Select your preferred indentation style (spaces or tabs).
3. Click the "Format & Validate" button.
   • If the XML is well-formed, a "Valid XML" message will appear, and the formatted code will be displayed in the output box.
   • If there are syntax errors, an error message will describe the problem, helping you to correct it.

For example, a minified input like this:

<root><user><name>Homer Pitt</name><id>123</id></user></root>

will be formatted into a clean, indented structure like this:

<root>
  <user>
    <name>Homer Pitt</name>
    <id>123</id>
  </user>
</root>
