Did you ever want to run MSXML or Saxonica (Saxon-SA) as XML validator directly in XMLSpy? Without starting a batch file, maybe copy-pasting the path of the current document and looking at the results in a DOS box? If so, ValidatorBuddy will be your friend. Check your XML files with the most popular validators available. Compare the different Validator outputs to get more informations about errors in your XML. See the results directly in XMLSpy and fix any validation errors. The Error Output window is fully editable and you can Copy-Paste the validation results.

Simply add File Commander PRO to the XMLSpy IDE as PlugIn to enhance the usability of the application with things like reloading opened files on startup, a history of opened files and an integrated file explorer. The PlugIn offers the following key features: File Explorer Tab: You can see the file details and you can browse the directory of the currently active document with one mouse click! Sorting on file name, size and modification date is supported. History Tab: A list of all opened files until now. Double clicking the list item opens the file in XMLSpy. You can also see if the file was modified since it was open in XMLSpy for the last time because the history also remembers the last date and time when it was open in XMLSpy. The list can be sorted on all columns. Details Tab: This tab shows the number and name of the XML elements and attributes of the current document if it is displayed using Grid or Authentic view. The number of elements and attributes is always updated in GridView. Settings Tab: Modify the behaviour of the PlugIn to fit your special requirements.

AjaxGear is a toolkit that allows you to take advantage of the client-side technique known as AJAX. AJAX is shorthand for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. It uses the XMLHttpRequest object to allow a Web browser to make asynchronous call to the Web server without the need to refresh the whole page. AjaxGear powers this website and has been tested and compatible with Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher and Mozilla Firefox 1.5. As AjaxGear evolves, new features will be demonstrated on this site. As such, the fastest way to learn how to use AjaxGear in your web application is to download the source files of this website and see how AjaxGear is used.

The simple and elegant look of the oXygen combined with the complete coverage of the XML editing features have made it popular in both the corporate and academic worlds. It provides the necessary tools for the document creation and presentation. The documents can be created and validated against any user defined schema. The smart context sensitive editing saves time and guarantees a minimum number of validation errors. The documents can be published in a wide range of formats including HTML, PDF, PostScript using the built-in or external processors. Developers can use oXygen for authoring document schemas and for editing and debugging the XSL stylesheets needed for the presentation layer. The integration with the document repositories is made through the WebDAV and FTP protocols. Oxygen is an XML Editor and XSLT Debugger written in Java with Unicode support. It offers end tag auto-completion and a powerful code insight. The code insight can follow a DTD or an XML Schema or even can learn the structure from a partial edited document. An important thing is manipulating XML content and XSLT is the normal way to do this. XML and XSL documents can be easily associated one with the other and the transformation results can be viewed as text or HTML. Oxygen XML Editor provides a visual schema editor for W3C XML Schema and Relax NG schema designed to simplify the development and understanding of the schema files. Oxygen validates XML, XSL and XSD content, reporting errors with description and line number information. More documents can be logically organized in projects. It comes with the latest Docbook DTD and stylesheets. Includes the Apache FO Processor, being able to generate PDF and PostScript. Other FO processors can be configured as plugins. Oxygen provides a special layout when entering in debugging mode to show the source and the stylesheet documents side by side and to show also the results and special debbuging views. Debugging and profiling can be done using Xalan 2.5.1, Saxon6.5.4 or Saxon8 transformation engines. All debugger capabilities are provided (step into, step over, step out, run, run to cursor, run to end, pause, stop). XPath expressions are evaluated automatically during debugging. The output is dynamically presented as it is generated by the transformation process. A complete diff and merge solution is also available in Oxygen. It offers both directory and file comparison, 6 file diff algorithms, multiple level diff support, synchronized scrolling and change guide lines, easy invocation of the diff action from project panel or from the editors' contextual menu. Oxygen provides support for importing database content, Microsoft Excel sheets and legacy text data files into XML documents.

The Stylus Studio XML File Explorer provides a consistent user interface for working with the data sources frequently used in enterprise data integration projects. Using the XML File Explorer you can access as XML the following databases, servers, file systems, all as though they were files on the local file system: Local file systems WebDAV servers, Secure WebDAV servers, FTP servers, Live Web service data, SQL Server 2000, Oracle9i, Oracle10g, IBM DB2, Sybase, Informix, MySQL, Other relational databases, Berkeley DB XML, TigerLogic XDMS, EDI/EDIFACT/X12, Binary files, CSV files, EDI/EDIFACT/X12, Any flat file, etc.

Although XSLT and XQuery are adept at handling XML documents, much of the information in an enterprise is not in XML format. This presentation demonstrate some of the data integration tools in Stylus Studio that can be used to build adapters for transforming non-XML documents to use both within Stylus Studio and in external applications.
