+<div><p>This file contains information about editing XML files.</p>
+
+<div class="section"><p>To open an XML file in the XML editor, right-click it in the Navigator
+view and select <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Open With</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">XML
+Editor</span></span>. </p>
+<p>We recommend working in the Resource
+perspective when you are developing XML files. The views that appear by default
+in this perspective (such as the Outline view) help facilitate XML development.</p>
+<p>The
+XML editor enables you to directly edit XML files. There are several different
+views you can use to edit your files:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><strong>Source view</strong>: you can manually insert, edit, and delete elements
+and attributes in the Source view of the XML editor. To facilitate this effort,
+you can use content assist while you are in the Source view.</li>
+
+<li><strong>Design view</strong>: you can insert, delete, and edit elements, attributes,
+comments, and processing instructions in this view.</li>
+
+<li><strong>Outline view</strong>: you can insert and delete elements attributes, comments,
+and processing instructions in this view.</li>
+
+</ul>
+<p>Often, you may find that you have more than one way to perform a specific
+task. For example, you have an XML file "MySchoolSubjects.xml" associated
+with an XML schema file "SchoolSubjects.xsd", which list all the subjects
+taught in a school. You want to insert a new element "Math" into your file.
+You can do so in the following ways:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>In the Outline or Design view, right-click the appropriate parent element
+and select <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Add Child</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Math</span>
+</span> or <span class="uicontrol">New Element</span> and enter the name of
+the child element.</li>
+
+<li>In the Source view, use content assist to help you find the appropriate
+location and code for the <span class="uicontrol">Math</span> element.</li>
+
+<li>In the Source view, type the code for the <span class="uicontrol">Math</span> element
+in the file.</li>
+
+</ul>

Content and attribute values can be edited directly in the table cells, while pop-up menus on the tree elements give alternatives that are valid for that particular element.">Editing in the Design view</a></div>
