For specific steps on any of the following tasks, refer to the Flare online Help. Many additional tasks can be performed in this editor if you open it in Flare. Following are some of the primary tasks that you can perform when you open the XML Editor in the Analyzer interface. In addition to typing content, there are dozens of things you can do in the XML Editor. If you select "Yes", the editors remain open in split view, but the Text Editor becomes the main editor and the XML Editor cannot be shown until the invalid code is fixed.
Invalid Edits Outside of Analyzer If the document being viewed is edited outside of Analyzer with invalid XML and saved, Analyzer will prompt you to open the file as text. If the editors are docked (i.e., you cannot see the XML Editor), you will be unable to start a split view or click the XML Editor tab until the error is resolved. If you make an edit in the XML Editor while erroneous XML is in the Text Editor, the changes in the XML Editor take precedence over any edits in the Text Editor. If the editors are not docked (i.e., you can see the XML Editor), updates (i.e., highlights, edits) stop going from the code to the XML Editor. In addition, the following rules are in effect, depending on whether the editors are docked or undocked. For example, in the XML Editor, you can highlight different parts of a table, but because of the order in which table markup is written in XHTML, it cannot be similarly highlighted in the Text Editor.Ĭode Validation If you type characters that result in invalid XML, the Text Editor displays an error with information as to why the error exists.
Note: If you highlight areas in the XML Editor that matches non-consecutive sections of XML, no highlight is shown in the Text Editor. Highlighting text in one editor automatically highlights the related text in the other editor.Ĭlicking in one editor causes the other editor to jump to the same position. Not only does split view allow you to see the XML Editor and Text Editor jointly in different ways, but there are also special features with split view.
