It seems a <br> code in my XML-file is not accepted.
This XML file is created using Movablestyle/Thingamablog

Can anyone please analyse this HTML/XML-source, and tell me what is wrong?

In XML, all elements need to be explicitly closed and there are only two
way of closing an element, either by using an end-tag like </p> or by
using a special kind of start-tag, <p/>, which can be used if there is
no content. In your document the <br> elements are not closed, you have
just "<br>" without a corresponding "</br>". Change these to "<br></br>"
or (probably better), "<br />".

Cool, I really did not know this.
I will try it tomorrow immediately.
Thanks!
