'''Simple Outline XML''' (SOX) is a compressed way of writing [[XML]].
SOX uses indenting to represent the structure of an XML document, eliminating the need for closing tags.
== Example ==
The following [[XHTML]] markup fragment:
<syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Sample page</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>A very brief page</p>
</body>
</html>
</syntaxhighlight>
... would appear in SOX as:
<pre>
html>
xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml
head>
title> Sample page
body>
p> A very brief page
</pre>
SOX can be readily converted to XML.
