The xmllint program parses one or more XML files, specified on the
command line as <i class="replaceable"><tt>xmlfile</tt></i>. It prints various
types of output, depending upon the options selected. It is useful for
detecting errors both in <span class="acronym">XML</span> code and in the
<span class="acronym">XML</span> parser itself.
</p><p>
It is included in <span class="application">libxml2</span>.

</dd><dt><span class="term"><tt class="option">--htmlout</tt></span></dt><dd>
Output results as an <span class="acronym">HTML</span>

Do not output HTML doc wrapper.
</dd><dt><span class="term"><tt class="option">--valid </tt></span></dt><dd>
Determine if the document is a valid instance
of the included Document Type Definition (<span class="acronym">DTD</span>). A
<span class="acronym">DTD</span> to be validated against also can be specified at
the command line using the <tt class="option">--dtdvalid</tt> option. By default,
<span class="application">xmllint</span> also checks to determine if the
document is well-formed.

Validate after parsing is completed.

primarily used to generate XHTML from HTML input.</dd><dt><span class="term"><tt class="option">--push</tt></span></dt><dd>
Use the push mode of the parser.

running them.</dd><dt><span class="term"><tt class="option">--nowarning</tt></span></dt><dd>
Do not emit warnings from the parser and/or validator.
