                      What are you using to validate this and to get this error? You aren't doing anything wrong and the W3C validator does not flag any errors.

                              Start tag expected, not found

                              Code:
                                Start tag expected, '<' not found

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
                              It says no < start tag but shows my code and it had a start tag, there for sure IS a start tag in my code so I dont understand.

                                  I copy/pasted it into the validator and don't get the error at all. I'm thinking you are getting the utf BOM (Byte-Order-Mark) from your editor. What editor are you using? Check its settings to see if you are saving it as utf-8 or not. Is there anything about the BOM in the settings? If you view the xml in a browser, do you see any funny characters in the top left corner?
