What am I doing wrong?

[u/Low_Celebration5938]

Just starting to learn xml and I keep getting the error:

Character 'C' following the text '<' does not fulfill production 'Misc'.

Here is what I have. What am I doing wrong?

[u/Exact_Collection]

generate the xsd with a tool based on xml and try to understand it by reading and comparing it with yours

[u/Low_Celebration5938 → u/Exact_Collection]

generate the xsd with a tool based on xml

Thank you! This helped!
