XMLFox Advance XML/XSD tool is a sequel of the well-known world-leading XMLFox freeware XML/XSD Editor. Like its precursor, the XMLFox Advance has the same user-friendly interface. XMLFox Advance is an advanced XMLFox XML/XSD Editor with the following new attractive features:

 

It allows you to convert XML encoding. Especially from/to UTF-16. Let's say you have XML file with "utf-8" encoding. Now by using XMLFox Advance you can easily convert whole "utf-8" encoded XML to "utf-16" encoding and vise versa. There are several other encodings are supported.

The special interface on XML Tree view has been designed that allows modify XML record in a table/row representation in a Grid-style window.

 

XMLFox Advance supports Validation an XML against an XSD schema. XML content could be validated against an XSD schema located inside your XML and against an XSD schema located outside as well.

XMLFox Advance considers any XML file as a database. Since the XML is a database it has tables that are related to each other somehow. The tool provides Relationships interface window with the possibility to add/update/delete XML tables.

XMLFox Advance has a drop-down toolbar on Grid view pane. The following buttons are located on the toolbar:
Create new table
Table design
 

The Table Design Interface allows you to modify an existing table structure in your XML or create a new one. You can invoke the Table Design Interface by clicking on the drop-down Grid toolbar button when a table is selected.
If you would like to save your updates that you made for tables structures you need to assign the XSD schema inside your XML first. The table structures will be stored in the XSD schema within your XML for further using. For this case the Table Design interface has the special "Assign XSD to XML now" button that allows you to do that.
 

Print
Filter
 

The XMLFox Advance Filter interface helps you to display only those records in an XML table that match one or more criteria. For example, you want to see the products whose price is equal $50. Instead of opening the whole table in Grid view and scanning the entire list, you can apply a filter.
You can specify multiple criteria in a single filter. You can also apply a filter that is based on multiple columns.
 

Font
Relationships
 

The XMLFox Advance allows you to browse the Relationships between tables in XML.
XMLFox Advance considers any XML file as a relational database. Since the XML is a database it has tables that are related to each other somehow. One of the strengths of a relational database is the ability to relate or associate information about various items in the database.
The XMLFox Advance provides the possibility to add/update/delete XML tables by using the Relationships interface.
 

Convert to
 

In XMLFox Advance you can output data to several other data format files. The Editor allows you export XML tables or whole XML to the following data files: TXT; convert into CSV (Comma Separated Value) file, convert into HTML page, create MS Access database, upload XML into SQL Server database, convert to PDF, and create Excel file.
When you export XML you have the following two options:
1. "Convert the current XML table only" that allows you export selected XML table.
2. "Export whole XML according to its structure"
 

XSL designer interface.
Besides editing and validating an XML document the XMLFox Advance allows you to generate special XSL document, which will accompany your final XML document with a template XSL style-sheet. Both of these files can be used for your further needs such as: web-applications, reports, presentations, and so on.
