XML data feed failing to load

[paulc]

Am very new to XML but basically I am trying to add a live datafeed to my web site but seem unable to load the test page supplied. If anybody has a solution, then thank you as this is starting to drive me mad!!!

I have two files: test.xml and test.htm. When opening the htm file all I get is a blank page. The xml file is well formed.

The files are too big to copy onto here but they can be located here;

Thanks in advance

The xml file is well formed.
It isn't: The XML declaration need to be at column 1 of line 1. There can be no whitespace, no nothing preceding it.

Additionally, you can omit the XML declaration tag altogether. It's optional.
