XML Form Error

Hi all,

I'm getting the following error "Extra content at the end of the document" with the following form XML:

<form>
  <label>Monitoring</label>

  <fieldset autoRun="false" submitButton="true">

    <input type="time" searchWhenChanged="false">
      <default>
        <earliestTime>-7d@h</earliestTime>
        <latestTime>now</latestTime>
      </default>
    </input>

    <input type="dropdown" token="server">
      <label>Choose a Server Set:</label>
      <prefix>tag=</prefix>
      <choice value=”Prod”>Production</choice>
      <choice value=”QA”>QA</choice>
      <choice value=”Dev2”>Dev2</choice>
    </input>

  </fieldset>

  <row>
    <panel>
..... etc

It works fine without the dropdown, but the dropdown creates this issue. I've looked at it for a while and just cannot find the issue. Any suggestions?

Thanks!!

I guess the double quotes used for dropdown value is the problem. I corrected it and following work for me.

<form>
  <label>Monitoring</label>

  <fieldset autoRun="false" submitButton="true">

    <input type="time" searchWhenChanged="false">
      <default>
        <earliestTime>-7d@h</earliestTime>
        <latestTime>now</latestTime>
      </default>
    </input>

    <input type="dropdown" token="server">
      <label>Choose a Server Set:</label>
      <prefix>tag=</prefix>
      <choice value="Prod">Production</choice>
      <choice value="QA">QA</choice>
      <choice value="Dev2">Dev2</choice>
    </input>    
  </fieldset>
