Hi,
        the only place you cannot put a comment (except inside element 
decls) is before the <?xml bit. Nothing can go there.


<?xml version="1.0"?>                                                                  
                         
<!-- some comment -->                                                                  
                     
<root >                                                                                
                         
<!-- some comment -->                                                                  
                                                                                       
                                            
</root>                                                                                
                                                                                       
                                                
<!-- some comment -->

all those comments are fine, but if you went

<!-- some comment -->                                                                  
                     
<?xml version="1.0"?>                                                                  
                         
<root >                                                                                
                         
</root>                                                                                
                                                                                       
                                                


this would not be legel.
