Typo mistake in SCWCD Study Kit Book?

[Geoffrey Lo]

Hi all,
Is there a typing mistake on Chapter 16 of SCWCD Study Kit (by Deshmukh, Malavia) on page 300. Its about TLD files.
It says:
"First, a tag library descriptor file, like all XML files, starts with the line <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1">, which specifies the version of XML and the character set that the file is using. "

Shouldn't there be an extra ? at the end before >
like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
I get xml parsing error when setting up my tld file.
thx,
geoff.

I don't think it is a typo. But yet for the deploy
ment descriptor(web.xml) file it does have the ?> at
the end.
I am not a strong xml person so I don't know why that
is. Anyone???

Yes, it's typo mistake.
XML declaration should begin with <?
end with ?>
and put on the first line of the XML file.
