How does the CSV to XML converter handle quoted fields?

The converter correctly handles RFC 4180-compliant CSV, including fields enclosed in double quotes, escaped quotes within quoted fields (represented as ""), and fields that contain commas or newlines. This means real-world CSV files exported from Excel, Google Sheets, or databases convert cleanly.

Can I customize the XML tag names?

Yes. The Root Tag field sets the outer wrapper element name (default: 'records'), and the Row Tag field sets the element name for each CSV row (default: 'record'). Column header names from the first CSV row become the child element names automatically.

What happens to special characters like & in CSV data?

Special XML characters are automatically escaped: & becomes &, becomes >, and quotes are escaped as " or ' where needed. This ensures the output is always valid XML regardless of what special characters appear in your data.

What should the first row of my CSV contain?

The first row should be headers — the column names that will become XML element names. Invalid XML characters in header names (like spaces or special characters) are automatically converted to underscores so the output remains valid XML.

Can I convert a CSV file directly, or do I need to paste the text?

The current tool requires pasting CSV text. To convert a file, open it in a text editor (or use File → Open in Excel and Save As → CSV), copy the content, and paste it into the input. For large files, the processing still happens entirely in your browser.
