Hi everyone, again.

I wanted to thank everyone for your advice on my XML pages.  I didn't
realize that I had made some serious errors with starting and ending an xml
document.

I'll be fixing it over the next day, and explaining a bit more about
elements and attributes--we wanted to avoid discussing them until the
"Basics Section," but I think you're all right about briefly mentioning
them.

Thanks again for the advice!
-Julie

I think it would have been fairer to point out that xml should be lower
case<g>!

<?xml version="1.0"?> is correct

"<?XML version="1.0"?> "
>
>Wrong.  Read the spec

Prolog
[22]  prolog ::=  XMLDecl? Misc* (doctypedecl Misc*)?
[23]  XMLDecl ::=  '<?xml' VersionInfo EncodingDecl? SDDecl? S? '?>'
[24]  VersionInfo ::=  S 'version' Eq (' VersionNum ' | " VersionNum ")
[25]  Eq ::=  S? '=' S?
[26]  VersionNum ::=  ([a-zA-Z0-9_.:] | '-')+
[27]  Misc ::=  Comment | PI |  S
