Whenever you want to edit or create XML files and you only have Windows installed, without any additional applications, you may be coming up with a problem. Using Notepad or Wordpad to edit XML files is not the best idea possible, as you cannot view the syntax correctly and you cannot check the XML document for errors. Fortunately, there are specialized applications which can help you edit XML files in no time, in an efficient way. One such application is XMLPad.

You will notice the true power of XMLPad just after you install it. This Windows application allows you to edit XML files with ease, as it supports syntax highlighting. Using this feature, you will be able to quickly find a specific function and even spot possible errors in the XML code much faster than using other similar programs. When launching the program for the first time, the user will first need to create a new project and also select the type of file which should be created. That's because XMLPad supports various types of XML documents and even Java applications. When selecting a certain type of document, the syntax highlighting feature will change accordingly, to reflect the new type of functions.

The interface of XMLPad features several viewing options, which are source, grid view, table view and preview. The last option allows you to view the XML code without having to save it first. Thus, you would quickly know if you made a mistake in writing the code. A feature which makes XMLPad different from other similar applications is the possibility of validating the XML code.

Pros

It allows you to edit any kind of XML document and also create XML files from scratch with ease. Besides that, it supports creating Java files. Furthermore, projects can be previewed in several ways and can even be previewed without having to save the file first. Moreover, the XML code can be validated with a single click.

Cons

Fully using the application and its features requires some knowledge and experience in using XML. Editing and creating XML documents becomes extremely simple when using XMLPad.
