There are a number of pieces of software out there that will<br>
pretty-print the XML for you, with indenting and whatnot. Overly<br>
indented for what you would want in production but decent for<br>
debugging mismatching nesting and the like.<br>
<br>
For example, 'xmllint --format' will properly indent the file, etc. I<br>
don't know how it will handle poorly formed XML.<br>
<br>
GUI editors can do wonders as well. On Windows I use Notepad++ and<br>
manually set it to display XML. gEdit and Geany - I believe - both<br>
support similar display worlds. And there are some plugins for Eclipse<br>
that might handle what you need as well.<br>

One of my least favour things is finding mismatched tags in OSIS.xml files<br>

XEmacs and xml-mode (and font-lock-mode). M-C-f and M-C-b execute<br>
sgml-forward-element and -backward-. That is, sitting at the beginning<br>
