1. It's not looks like XML
2. In any case XML can have only one! root element (document root)

So why not following a brief tutorial on XML? :) This is pretty basic stuff that you should understand prior to using XML.

You have to work on your code formatting, currently it is hard to see the XML in your post...But even so...
An XML document can have one, and only one, root element

XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
  <!-- everything goes here -->
</root>

XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
</root>
<root2>
  <!-- this is a second root-level element, which is wrong and will threw an error -->
</root2>


I I try to imagine your post as XML I see multiply root elements, and that is forbidden...

i will change it quickly , this is from a tutorial i was following to get used to the xamarin layout ect ect
jamesmc1535 24-Nov-15 7:09am    
i changed it to on all the roots? but i got an error now saying , "not well informed"

Maybe 'not well formed'?
There are several rules of how XML should be formatted, including special chars...
Try to load your content here and examine it to see where/what is the problem...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf2O_t-ayJ8 < this is the tutorial i was following and i did everything the same..
Kornfeld Eliyahu Peter 25-Nov-15 3:03am    
In that tutorial here is a LinerLayout element as root element of all the controls...In your post there is not!
As a compliment to Solution 1, I think it is a good idea to get some basic XML knowledge.
One place to start is here: W3Schools: XML Tutorial[^]
