If you get the annoying message '#1088: The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed', here is (possibly) the solution.
Some say, the slash is necessary in the opening tag (like <"entry"> is not correct, you should write "entry /">. Some say there couldn't be more than 30 items in the root element. The truth is out there, just do the following:

• Check if there are any extra characters in the beginning. For example, UTF-8 header (also called BOM, Byte Order Mark).
• Check if there's 0x1A (#26 ASCII, 'EOF') in the end of the file.

We're getting more orders, that's why no articles or content. BUT be sure to check again soon, another top-down scroller is 99% complete!
