    sherone, the sitemap displays fine on my firefox browser even without the style sheet and upon looking at it seems to be correct ( I would maybe add change frequency, priority).
    Where do you get the error? within Webmaster Central?

    I had the same problem with one of my sites, I submitted my sitemap in Yahoo and everything was fine but when I submitted it in Google webmasters tools I kept on getting an error.

    Your sitemap is fine. It works on my firefox. Check if Google is finding it as well, then you can stop worrying. Ignore the error.
