XML causing an error

[eluser]tdktank59[/eluser]
So for some reason in my view file I hate this line of code

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

And for some reason it throws an error when I call the file.

any ideas? this is valid xml tags so I don't get why it is doing this

Code:

function index()
{
$this->load->view('file1');
}

Fresh install of CI, nothing autoloaded. configured enough to make it work.

What's the error message? I tried a quick test and it works for me.

Oh, I get the same error with short tags enabled (guess it's trying to parse it).

Yes, this is a tad annoying, so here is fix:

Code:

<? echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>' ?>
