XML Formatter / Validator

Format, validate, and pretty-print XML data directly in your browser.
XML Input
Output

Runs entirely in your browser — your data is never uploaded to a server. Uses the browser's built-in XML parser to check well-formedness (matching tags, valid nesting, proper escaping); this checks structure only, not against an XSD/DTD schema.

Frequently Asked Questions

No — it checks well-formedness only (matching tags, valid nesting, proper escaping) using the browser's built-in XML parser, not full schema validation.

No, parsing and formatting both run locally in your browser using the native DOMParser API.

Mixed content isn't preserved perfectly in the pretty-printed output — the formatter prioritizes clean indentation over exact whitespace preservation in these cases.
