xml construct error

Question

I have the following xml file as output from a program:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
<rsp stat='ok'>
<results total='5'>
<result cover='http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMjMyOTM4MDMxNV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNjIyNzExOA@@._V1._SX54_CR0,0,54,74_.jpg' title='The Amazing Spider-Man 'year='2012' director='Marc Webb' rating='7.3' details='/title/tt0948470/' />

</results>
</rsp>

But when i save it as xml file and open it in browser it shows attribute construct error. WHY ??

Answer 1

You have to separate attribute values from the names of other attributes with whitespace characters. Notice that year immediately follows the value of title. You simply misplaced a couple of spaces.

title='The Amazing Spider-Man 'year='2012'

You have to change it to

title='The Amazing Spider-Man' year='2012'

The following document should render properly.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
