  New in version 9.1:

  When visually editing XML documents it is always a challenge to easily edit XML attributes. The new version solves this problem by allowing a quick and easy way with the new in place editing for XML attributes. The in place editing popup can be triggered with a configurable shortcut (by default that is Alt+Enter). Both XML attribute names and possible values can be quickly selected by typing their prefixes.

  The visual Author mode from Oxygen XML editor was also enhanced with support for bookmarks. These allow quick positioning in large documents and working in multiple locations of multiple documents.

  DITA map documents can be easily converted to HTML or PDF. A new pre-configured scenario was added for the default DITA configuration for transforming a DITA Map document to HTML. The already existing DITA to PDF scenario can handle now also DITA map files so you can use that to convert a DITA map to PDF.

  The WebDAV support has been improved by adding WebDAV locking support. This ensures that only you can modify that resource on the WebDAV server. If another user tries to edit a locked resource s/he will receive a warning message containing the name of the lock owner. The resource is locked when you open it and released automatically when the resource is closed.

  Oxygen XML editor now supports SOAP 1.2. The SOAP version is detected from the WSDL definition file and the appropriate headers are set in the SOAP request. The SOAP 1.2 envelope is validated against a SOAP 1.2 XML Schema.

  Several components were updated. The TEI framework was updated to the latest P5 1.0 schemas, DITA Open Toolkit to the latest 1.4.1 and Saxon B XSLT processor from Saxonica to the latest 9.0.0.2 version. Oxygen XML editor supports also the Saxon SA 9.0.0.2 (that requires a separate license from Saxonica).

  [Version 9.1Build 2007121417]
• XML Editor 9 is available
  

  Syncro Soft Ltd, the producer of Oxygen XML Editor, has announced the immediate availability of version 9.0 of its XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT/XQuery Debugger.

  The main feature of version 9.0 is a CSS-based visual XML editor allowing WYSIWYG like editing of XML documents. With an innovative approach to XML authoring Oxygen allows you to work with XML frameworks (DocBook, DITA, TEI, XHTML, etc) easier than ever before. Version 9 adds a new concept called Document Type that allow users to provide ready to use support for a framework or an XML language and share that with other users. This version also brings improved error reporting for validation against Relax NG schemas and Schematron, additional side view helpers, some component updates and a number of other features.

  For the complete list of new features please visit http://www.oxygenxml.com/index.html#new-version

  New in version 9.0:

  The WYSIWYG like rendering of the visual XML editor is driven by CSS stylesheets conforming with the W3C CSS 2.1 specification so that users are not locked into a custom format. Some enhancements introduced by the W3C CSS 3 working draft like CSS XML namespaces and the attr function are also supported. The tagless editor comes with ready to use support for largely used XML frameworks: DITA, DocBook 4 / DocBook 5, TEI P4 / TEI P5 and XHTML. Both the CALS and HTML table models are supported.

  The new Document Type concept allows to easily share between users preconfigured support for an XML framework or language consisting of default schema for validation, CSS stylesheets for WYSIWYG editing, custom actions, document templates, XML catalogs and transformation scenarios.

  Incomplete error reports in validation against a Relax NG schemas like "required attributes missing", "required elements missing" or "unfinished element" were updated to report exactly what XML attributes or elements are missing and what is expected to finish the element. The diagnostics messages issued by a Schematron schema are displayed together with the other validation errors. Schematron report messages are treated as warnings.

  The new outliner implementations for CSS and XQuery allow you to see immediately the structure of your CSS and XQuery documents. Two new views, the XML Elements View and the Entities View allow to easily insert new elements and entities in your XML files.

  There were many small but useful new features in Oxygen XML editor version 9, to take an example the spell checking is aware of xml:lang values and this allows to check the spelling in documents that contain content in more than one language.
