I just installed Joomlacomment 3.26 on my site, and the only changes I made were to the css to give it a dark background, and the language to change the text on the Send button to Submit.

When I tried to test it I keep getting a popup with an error about an "Invalid xml declaration."

Here's what the popup says:
error is line 3 position 3 >>ml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?><post><id>5</id><after>-1</after><published>1</published><noerror><debug></debug><body><![CDATA[

Looked around and found the code in comment.class.php starting on line 1223
$xml = '<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>';
           $xml .= '<post>';
           $xml .= '<id>' . $item['id'] . '</id>';
           if ($this->_tree && isset($item['after'])) $xml .= '<after>' . $item['after'] . '</after>';
            $xml .= '<published>' 	. $item['view'] 	. '</published>';
            $xml .= '<noerror>' 	. $item['noerror'] 	. '</noerror>';
            $xml .= '<debug>'		. $item['debug'] 	. '</debug>';
            if ($item['view']) {
	            $html = JOSC_utils::cdata(JOSC_utils::filter($this->encodeData_Charset($this->insertPost($item, ''))));
    	        $xml .= "<body>$html</body>";

I just can't figure out where the error is. Can anyone possibly give me a hand on this one please.

Well, can you try it with another language file.
If you make changes to the language file be sure to save it in UTF-8. Some text editor programs are saving characters that are not visible for you, but are making problems.
With PSPad or eclipse you are always staying on the good side.

I changed the language to spanish and tried, and have the same problem. I didn't change anything in that language file.

Here's one of the pages that gets this error: projectlubbock.com/project-lubbock/17-up...come-project-lubbock
The comments are getting posted, but a user clicks the send buton, they get that error.


Thanks,
Jeff

Did you edit the language file or not?
Please change the language file to english and also change to a standart template, that is not edited from you. If it is working, then you made something wrong. If it is still not working, then please provide me with a super admin access.

I did edit the english language file and changed one word. I use Dreamweaver which is set to save in UTF-8. I did change a couple of colors in the css.css file. That is the extent of what I did to the files themselves.
I had backups of the files that I reuploaded to the site and the problem was still there. I reinstalled and the problem still persisted. So I noticed the complete uninstall setting. I changed that and after uninstalling I went through and manually deleted a couple of files left in plugins.
I reinstalled and the problem was gone. After making a few settings changes, I figured out what caused the problem. The Include/Exclude setting has to stay set on Include. If I changed it to Exclude, I would get the same problem. Changing it back didn't fix the problem, only a fresh install would. I figured this out after uninstalling and installing Joomlacomment a total of 8 times, and making one change at a time. Then leaving test comments, and when I changed this setting it gave me the error.
I proved this was the problem by doing it 3 times and had the same results. I can't tell you why it did that, but that is the setting change that had been giving me grief. I am now leaving it set to include and just picking the sections I want to include rather than those I want to exclude from now on.

Hi Jeff,
I'm happy that your problem is solved.
However I can not confirm your test results. For me the exclude feature is working as it should work.
