Multiple Root Elements?

In trying to open a topic that has been part of the help project forever, I'm getting an error that says the file contains invalid XML ... "There are multiple root elements, line 6, position 6." I'm asked whether I want to open the file as text. I open it as text but can't tell what's wrong. Any suggestions?

Thanks for suggesting that I post the code. After posting the first 7 lines (see below), I wondered why I hadn't compared the code with the code for a similar topic (concluded I'm a slow thinker) and did so, discovering that line 6 was missing </head> and line 7 was missing <body>.
Thanks, again. All set now.

Lines 6 and 7 required the following:
</head>
<body>

Probably the easiest fix I've ever been able to give. Glad you figured it out.
