Jaxe : This application allows you to edit and create XML files.

In depth

A closer look at Jaxe

Jaxe is a XML editor adaptable to your XML language.

What Jaxe doesn't do (that is a topic you won't find on commercial websites, but that could save you time!) :- Jaxe does not let you edit XML files without a configuration file for the language.- Jaxe is not "WYSIWYG" (What You See Is What You Get), it is "WYSIWYM" (What You See Is What You Mean). As with all good XML editor, display is an operation independant from data input.- Jaxe does not support all the features of XML schemas. To know exactly what Jaxe supports, look at the file config/SimplerSchema.xsd: it's a subset of the schema for schemas including what Jaxe understands.- Jaxe is not a Java applet: it cannot be used in a web browser. It is however possible to include the XML edition pane within a Java applet. This solution is used by WebJaxe, a CMS written in PHP and based on XML document edition with Jaxe in a Java applet. Also, Hugo Burm has created a Java Webstart application based on Jaxe 1.9.2, JaxeCocoon, which can answer this need. Mike Allan created another one, which manages files locally as opposed to JaxeCocoon which is used to edit a file on a server.
