==Functionality beyond syntax highlighting==
 
An XML editor goes beyond the syntax highlighting offered by many plaintext editors and generic source code editors, verifying the XML source based on an [[XML schema]] or XML DTD, and some can do it as the document is being edited in real time.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Goldberg |first=Kevin Howard |title=XML: Visual QuickStart Guide |publisher=Peachpit |year=2008 |isbn=978-0321559678 |edition=2nd |page=110 |pages=110 |language=639-1 |chapter=8}}</ref>
Other features of an editor designed specifically for editing XML might include element word completion and automatic appending of a closing tag whenever an opening tag is entered.
These features can help to prevent typographically originating errors in the XML code.
