XML Beautifier – Online “Pretty XML” Converter
This "XML Beautifier" takes an XML file and formats it online to produces a beautified version on-the-fly in your WordPress blog.
This is an example of using the WP XML Template plug in to produce indented and syntax highlighted XML that can be embedded in your posts or pages. The template can be defined using the following recursive markup:
{rewrite}<span style="display: block; color: purple; background: [background];"><[name(xml)]<span style="color: red;">{rewrite:attr xml/@*} [name(attr)]="<span style="color: blue;">[htmlencode(xmlencode(attr))]</span>"{/rewrite:attr}</span>><span style="color: black;">[htmlencode(xmlencode(xml))]</span>{rewrite:tag xml/*}<span style="display: block; margin-left: 20px;">[call(@id,xml[tag],background[background])]</span>{/rewrite:tag}</[name(xml)]></span>{/rewrite}
which in visual mode will look like this:
{rewrite}<[name(xml)]{rewrite:attr xml/@*} [name(attr)]="[htmlencode(xmlencode(attr))]"{/rewrite:attr}>[htmlencode(xmlencode(xml))]{rewrite:tag xml/*}[call(@id,xml[tag],background[background])]{/rewrite:tag}</[name(xml)]>{/rewrite}
and this is how you embed it:
{rewrite}[call(@prettyxml, background{lightgray}, xml[loadxml({../uploads/file.xml})])]{/rewrite}
and this is what it produces:
<devices><device class="Mobile Phone" brand="Apple" model="iPhone 4 16GB Refreshed"><specs>5.0 megapixel camera with LED flash. HD video recording & editing. Glass design for optical quality and scratch resistance. 3.5" high-resolution screen</specs><variants><variant link="" image="http://three-stores.co.uk/thumb.jpg.php?img=8801466744862.jpg&mw=100&mh=80">iPhone 4 16GB Black Refreshed</variant><variant link="" image="http://three-stores.co.uk/thumb.jpg.php?img=8800932495390.jpg&mw=100&mh=80">iPhone 4 16GB White Refreshed</variant></variants><deals><deal id="1" cost="600" monthly="31" months="24"><line type="upfront" value="0">FREE Mobile Phone</line><line type="minutes" value="2000">2000 Minutes</line><line type="texts" value="5000">5000 Texts</line></deal></deals></device><device class="Mobile Phone" brand="Apple" model="iPhone 4 8GB"><specs>5.0 megapixel camera with LED flash.

In this case "prettyxml" is defined as a global variable on the plugin's settings page and it contains the post number of the template. "background" is defined as a custom variable on the template post itself.
