About XML Parser

XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a widely used format for storing and transporting structured data, from configuration files and API responses to document formats like SVG and XSLT. Parsing XML means converting the raw text into a structured document tree where each element, attribute, and text node can be inspected individually. Our XML Parser uses the browser's built-in DOMParser API to turn your XML into a navigable, interactive tree view.

The tree visualization color-codes each part of your XML document for quick scanning: element names appear in blue, attributes in amber/orange, and text content in green. Every node with children can be expanded or collapsed, making it easy to drill into deeply nested structures or get a high-level overview of the document hierarchy. All processing happens entirely in your browser — no data is ever sent to a server.

02

Click Parse

Hit the "Parse" button to run the XML through the browser's DOMParser. Any syntax errors will be shown in the error bar.

03

Explore the Tree

Browse the interactive tree view on the right. Click the arrows to expand or collapse nodes and inspect elements, attributes, and text content.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an XML Parser? expand_more
An XML parser reads raw XML text and converts it into a structured document object model (DOM) tree. Each XML element becomes a node in the tree, with its attributes, text content, and child elements accessible for inspection. This makes it easy to understand and navigate complex XML documents.
What types of XML files are supported? expand_more
The parser supports any well-formed XML document, including configuration files, SOAP responses, SVG markup, XSLT stylesheets, RSS/Atom feeds, and custom XML formats. As long as the XML follows proper syntax rules, it can be parsed and displayed as a tree.
Is my XML data kept private? expand_more
Yes. All parsing is performed locally in your browser using the native DOMParser API. Your XML data never leaves your device and is not sent to any external server, making it completely safe for sensitive or proprietary content.
How are parsing errors handled? expand_more
If your XML contains syntax errors such as unclosed tags, mismatched element names, or invalid characters, the parser detects the issue through the DOMParser error reporting and displays a descriptive error message in the red error bar above the editor panes.
