RE: [xml-dev] xml with no -->"<?xml version?>"

[PTrehan@westell.com]

The First Line is part of XML Header.  This tells XML parser regarding
version of the XML draft and encoding supported by your file.
If you don't have this header than XML parser will return parsing error.

Then what is the use of having the first line --><?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>"



Thank you.
