Got Questions? We have you covered
Well-formed XML follows the structural rules of the XML specification: all tags are properly opened and closed, attributes are quoted, and there is a single root element. The validator uses the browser's DOMParser to check this.
No. The validator checks structural well-formedness only, not schema validity. For XSD validation you would need a server-side tool.
Yes. The file upload accepts .xml, .html, .svg, and .xsd files. All are treated as XML text and formatted the same way.
There is no hard limit imposed by the tool. Very large files (>10 MB) may take a moment to process since all work is done in your browser.
