A well-formed document in XML is a document that adheres to the syntax rules specified by the XML 1.0 specification in that it must satisfy both physical and logical structures.

(TO DO: expand, organize, cross-reference, illustrate.)

Description

Well-formed documents require that:

  • Content be defined
  • Content be delimited with a beginning and end tag
  • Content be properly nested (parents within roots, children within parents)
