no ? in the prolog?


Well, I've taken care of some of the errors that have been generated from improper markup syntax. But there are some that I'm unsure. So I post this simple question -- are question marks (?) not allowed in the prolog? The first error message I get is this one:

openjade:./InfoServices_doc.xml:1:0:E: character "?not allowed in prolog

which really seems strange to me. The only question mark in my entire document is the one in the XML declaration, which I thought was required. The document starts off like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN"
"docbookx/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"
[
<!ENTITY % entitiesfile SYSTEM "entities.txt">
%entitiesfile;
]>
<book>
<part>
<title>Overview</title>
<chapter>
<title>About this Documentation</title>


I've also tried it with putting a space before the closing "?>" tag, and that seems not to make a difference.

any clues?



Erik
