Steps and functions

🔍 Parsed in your browser with local javascript, nothing is uploaded. Whatever is in the editor is kept in this browser's local storage. Everything is checked for well-formedness and undeclared namespace prefixes, then against the rules of whichever flavour it looks like. Formatting only ever moves whitespace between elements — text, entity references, and xml:space="preserve" are left alone. Click a row to put its path in the xpath box, which is real XPath 1.0 via libxml2-wasm — about 440KB fetched from unpkg the first time you run an expression, each file checked against a pinned sha384 digest before any of it loads, then it all happens here. Every namespace the document declares is registered for you, with xmlns= getting the prefix _, since XPath 1.0 has no default namespace of its own. The same libxml2 checks the document against an .xsd or .dtd you pick. ← back to some-natalie.dev
