XML Viewer — Pretty Print & Explore XML

Pretty print and explore XML structure — proxies xml-formatter viewer widget

How to Use This Tool

  1. Paste XML into proxied xml-formatter input.
  2. DOMParser validates well-formedness.
  3. Pretty print mode indents nested elements for exploration.
  4. Parse errors show when markup breaks.
  5. Minify when compact view needed after exploration.
  6. Copy formatted output for docs and diffs.

About This Tool

SAML assertions, Maven POMs, and RSS feeds buried in one-line exports slow incident response when engineers cannot see nesting at a glance. VSPIC xml-viewer maps to type proxy, slug xml-formatter in missing-tools-handlers.generated.ts — DOMParser validation, pretty print with configurable indent, minify toggle, and parse error reporting entirely client-side.

This page targets viewer and explorer SEO vocabulary while matching xml-formatter behavior exactly. Paste XML, validate, expand readable structure through pretty print, copy sections for tickets.

Common use cases

  • •Inspect HTTP headers and user-agent strings
  • •Analyze email headers for phishing investigation
  • •Generate strong passwords for staging environments

Why use VSPIC for ?

  • Full xml-formatter proxy for XML exploration.
  • Pretty print restores readable nesting from one-line dumps.
  • DOMParser errors before false confidence.
  • Client-side — auth metadata stays local.
  • Minify available without leaving widget.
  • Namespaces and CDATA through standard parse.

Viewer versus raw one-line XML

Pretty print after DOMParser parse makes element hierarchy scannable — critical for SAML AttributeStatement and dependency POM review.

Proxy to xml-formatter

xml-viewer is type proxy, slug xml-formatter — same React widget as canonical XML formatter page.

Relationship to xml-minifier

xml-minifier emphasizes compact output SEO. xml-viewer emphasizes exploration — interchangeable technical behavior.

Relationship to xml-xpath-tester

xml-xpath-tester also proxies xml-formatter — XPath query UI not on formatter yet. Manual scan via pretty print today.

Version control diffs

Pretty print before commit so PR diffs show semantic changes not whitespace roulette.

Client-side privacy

Tenant URLs in XML configs stay in browser on paste.

Parse error workflow

Fix first DOMParser error before expanding nested sections — secondary errors often cascade from first break.

Versus IDE XML tools

Locked-down laptops without IDE still get DOMParser viewer via browser.

Future XPath integration

Dedicated xpath tester handler may add query bar. xml-viewer documents current formatter proxy.

Important notes & limitations

  • Text tree view — not graphical XSD diagram.
  • Well-formed only — not XSD enforcement.
  • Very large documents may need external split.
  • No XPath query bar on formatter widget.
  • External entities not fetched.
