Hi Andrew

I'm not totally sure about that htmlhead you've used top and bottom of
your *sitemap.xml* file?

It looks suspiciously like regular HTML to me, albeit with an XML extension
...

I'm a bit of a newbie here, but I've had good success with *this* structure:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
urlset xmlns=http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84; xmlns:xsi=
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance; xsi:schemaLocation=
http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84
http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84/sitemap.xsd;
   url
loc .. URI ./loc
   changefreqmonthly/changefreq
priority0.5/priority
   /url
|
etc. ...
|
   url
loc .. URI ./loc
   changefreqmonthly/changefreq
priority0.5/priority
   /url
/urlset

I'm sure too that there's a wealth of info over at w3c.org ...

Cheers

Sorry Hassan! It would seem it's been changed.

Andrew's been beavering away, as one does.

His original XML file I downloaded from the same URI as you did: 
http://maps.unimelb.edu.au/sitemap.xml, right onto my desktop (it's still
there), and I believe I probably did that a number of hours before you
looked.

Sorry for the confusion. Keep breathing.


Swami  :)

 Don't know what you're looking at but there are no such tags in the
 document at http://maps.unimelb.edu.au/sitemap.xml

ahh - no.

I did change some stuff on the site, but not the xml file - I suspect
whatever you were looking at it with the first time had to put the
html tags around it just to make sense of it.
