XML Compare 14.0 makes HTML table comparison effortless

DeltaXignia are excited to announce the launch of Version 14 of XML Compare. Following on from our improvements to CALS table handling , we have now rolled out table comparison improvements to include HTML tables as well. This new version features a major update to the way HTML tables are handled when comparing tables and reporting differences. There are also a few new capabilities to ensure you get the best results when processing tables, so be sure to check these out.

Comparing xHTML tables has never been easier

A trade-off exists between capturing structural changes and displaying content changes logically when comparing XML tables. With XML Compare 14.0.0, we provide an improved way to compare HTML tables by showing content changes in as much detail as possible. In most cases, table results are now displayed at the cell level, creating a more intuitive experience for users used to seeing multiple row and column duplications.

Changes to spans

In the past, row duplication often occurred when table changes included modifications to spans, but now the results are much easier to see and understand when reviewed. The following examples demonstrate how the table results look when row and column spans are modified.
