Project Details
Xerlin contains contributions originally made to the Merlot XML editor project, the open source project on which Xerlin is based.
ChannelPoint founded and hosted the Merlot XML Editor as an open source project during 2000-2001. Xerlin was created to build on those foundations and in fact used some of the same developers.
Xerlin runs on any Java 2 virtual machine (JDK1.2.2 or higher). The application is extensible via custom editor interfaces that can be added for individual DTD's. Xerlin can validate XML against both DTDs and Schemas.
