==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 [[XMLSchemaXML Schema]] or XML DTD, and some can do it as the document is being edited in real time.
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.
