with its basics we recommends to work with notepad. Because it will be
always good technique to start any language with its lowest form. One big
opportunity is that XML files can be created and edited using a simple text-editor like Notepad
that's why avail this opportunity.
However, when we start working with XML, we will soon find that it is better
to edit XML documents using some kind of professional XML editor .
Number of programmers and web developers use simple notepad to develop or code
HTML,
XSL,
CSS,
JavaScript as well as XML documents and this is because each operating
system have a built-in functionality of Notepad. That's why most
developers use it and for the beginners it is best to use Notepad but for the
professionals it is not enough because in Notepad we can't examine the validity
of our XML tags. Today XML is an very important technology, and development
projects use XML-based technologies like to define XML structure we use XML
Schema and for its validity Notepad is not suitable. For transformation of
XML document with
XSL we need again some XML Editor because we cant validate our
XML document in Notepad.

We used XML Spy and XML Style Studio and we found both are very good editors.
These both editors are having good facilities like easy to use, attractive and
user trendily interface. Syntax coloring is very cool to examine the tags
attributes and standards etc. Automatic checking of tags validations is
also a great features that helps through out the development of XML, Schema,
XSL and other supporting formats. Some built-in functionality like Schema or DTD
sense to validate is also very attractive feature in both of editors.
