I'm working on a little game in my spare time, and came across TinyXML while having a little random nosy around. Coincidentally I was about to implement a whole line of text file bits and bobs. What a little gem!
Got TinyXML in and running(STL version) inside an hour, and have settled in XML as a result for everything but my render data file, which is already a packed binary thing. Luverly concise interface, and clear, short, to the point code. I've even ended up using XML for things I wouldn't have thought of at all before. Cheers for that. Big recommendation for games use.
On to the general question : Does anyone know if there are any capable XML editors around? A quick search turned up a lot aimed at designing styles and structures, but nothing on actually authoring content in XML. Ideally I'd like something with a tree view, and a customisable database like forms interface. Anyone know anything suitable?

I've found JEdit to be excellent for both home and professional projects. Make sure you get the XML plug-ins.
