FAQ

❓ How does CSV to XML conversion work?

The tool parses CSV data, uses the first row as element/attribute names (headers), and generates an XML element for each subsequent data row. Default mode is 'Element Mode' where each field becomes a child element. 'Attribute Mode' uses fields as XML attributes.

❓ Can I customize XML tag names?

Yes. You can customize the root element (default <root>) and row element (default <row>) names. In element mode, CSV headers automatically become child element names.

❓ What's the difference between Attribute Mode and Element Mode?

Element Mode: Each row generates an element with each field as a child element. Attribute Mode: Each row generates a single element with fields as XML attributes, resulting in more compact XML. For example 'name,age' in element mode: <row><name>X</name><age>25</age></row>, in attribute mode: <row name='X' age='25'/>.

❓ How are special characters handled?

Chinese and Unicode characters are preserved as-is. XML special characters (&, <, >, ", ') are automatically escaped. Output uses UTF-8 encoding with XML declaration. BOM headers are automatically skipped.

❓ Does it support large CSV files?

The tool runs entirely in your browser. Most daily files (under 10MB) process smoothly. All processing is done locally — data never leaves your computer, so there are no artificial file size limits.
