    Hi there, i hope I am posting this in the correct section. I use Blogger for my adsense sites (iam new at this and just doing great thanks to this site!) And i am trying to use a blogger template. SO i save the .xml document and go to upload it in blogger but i always get this error.

    Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.
    XML error message: The element type "input" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "".


    NO matter what template, from what website, i chose. What do i seem to be doing wrong? thanks for your help!

    You might want to post this in the design & development section. I dont think you'll get a lot of great advice about programming here;)

    Are you using the new blogger? or blogger classic? Your blogspot needs to be set up for new blogger if you are using xml templates.

    I signed up after Nov 2006, so i should automatically be able to use new blogger, and i do have access to the features that new blogger offers. So i must be in the right tool.

    Also, i do search through the tags and everything seems to be correct. like <body> </body>. Like i said, any xml template, from any website i get this error with. :eek: THIS IS BUGGING ME!! lol

    You need to change all of the < and > arrows to xml which I think is &gt; and &lt;. Check on the internet. You shouldn't get this error then.

    Try converting it to classic blogger then back to new blogger. Also you sure you are grabbing new blogger templates and not old ones?
