print your XML. Just paste your XML (or open a local file) and then click the Format button. It uses
the Ace embeddable code editor to add editing and
error
checking. It checks if you XML is well-formed.
If errors are found they are highlighted in the left gutter on the lines that errors were found. Hover

error icons to see a description of the error. If there are errors found correct them and click the
Format
button again.
This XML formatter works entirely in your browser. Your XML is not sent to any
