Getting An Error With Google SiteMap

Just tried to integrate the GoogleSiteMap extension & I'm getting the following error:

This page contains the following errors:

error on line 1 at column 9: XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.

That is the sum content of the sitemap.xml page however, if I right click & show source code every page is listed here.

This is the url to the sitemap;

http://www.transport4u.my/sitemap.xml

• I have created a resource called GoogleSiteMap.
• xml is listed as content type.
• alias is 'sitemap'.

This is on a modX 2.2.14 site

Anyone any idea how to fix this?
or
Does this need fixing?

I just tried registering this in google webmaster tools & received the message:

Unsupported file format
Your Sitemap does not appear to be in a supported format. Please ensure it meets our Sitemap guidelines and resubmit.

So whatever the issue is I need to fix it :-(

The first line is:

You have a stray p and /p at the start and end of the document. Turn off richtext and delete the p's.

Aaahh ok i can see that, i've unticked rich text in settings but I cannot delete the p's.

Result = predictably still the same.

I think i wrongly interpret where to put the [[!GoogleSiteMap]] call because I have put it into the content box of the sitemap resource page.

If i go to html editor & delete the p's they do not delete, meaning i think i do something wrong.

Where is the [[!GoogleSiteMap]] call supposed to go? Reading the document i thought it say in the resource page!!!

Go to the content box, make sure you're viewing the source and all it should contain is [[!GoogleSiteMap]]

It looks like you've got because of pasting it into the richtext editor.

Hi Dan,

Yes it is working now.

What i changed was unticking 'toggle editor' & then when delete the p's they stayed deleted.

The sitemap page appeared without errors but not in the format i expected (the view source page still shows how it should appear).

However, I re-submitted the sitemap to google webmaster tools & it came up with no errors this time & 16 pages were registered.

Thanks so much for your assistance it is appreciated
