Title
Body
I had a discussion with a colleague of mine about the XML declaration node (I'm talking about this => <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ). I believe that for something to be called "valid XML", it requires a XML declaration node. My colleague states that the XML declaration node is optionnal, since the default encoding is UTF-8 and the version is always 1.0 . This make sense, but what does the standard says ? In short, given the following file: <books> <book id="1"><title>Title</title></book> </book> Can we say that: It is valid XML ? It is a valid XML node ? It is a valid XML document ? Thank you very much.
