UncleCheese,

My site is working fine on IE, but now i ran into a problem on Firefox and Google Chrome.

On those browsers i get this error ;

XML Parsing Error: xml declaration not at start of external entity
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
-^

Now i tracked it down, the problem seems to be in my config file where i have

<CODE> SortableDataObject::add_sortable_classes(array('Personeel','Bekendmaking')); <END CODE>

If i remove this line (That makes some functionality of my site kind of useless, but for debugging it works) everything is working fine again.

Any thoughts on this?

I'm not sure.. but I would just get rid of the XML doctype. Those things are a nightmare to work with, and there's really no substantial reason to use them now that HTML 5 is coming to life.

Tx for your reply,

Do you mean get rid of the lines in my templates ? like

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" >

would that fix the problem?

<EDIT> And offcourse you are right. That did the trick . Thank u UncleCheese
