Question

I got some invalid Token parsing problem

Code :

public class viewparty extends Activity implements OnItemClickListener {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    /* declare widgets */
    String[] booking_id;
    String[] user_id1;
    String[] partyname;
    String[] email;
    String[] phone;
    String[] partytype;
    String[] venue;
    String[] date;
    String[] promoter;
    String[] guests;
    String[] compbottle;
    String[] bottleservice;
    String[] openbar;
    String[] guests2;
    String[] ticketedevent;
    String[] commission;
    String[] promotercommission;
    String[] notes;

    ArrayList<String> al_booking_id, al_user_id, al_partyname, al_email,
            al_phone, al_partytype, al_venue, al_date, al_promoter, al_guests,
            al_compbottle, al_bottleservice, al_openbar, al_guests2,
            al_ticketedevent, al_commission, al_promotercommission, al_notes;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.viewparty);

        processLogin();


}

    public void processLogin() {




            DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
            HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(
                    "url");
            List nvps = new ArrayList();
            nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("api", "viewparties"));
            nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("userid", "15"));
            // MainActivity.UserID
            UrlEncodedFormEntity p_entity = new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nvps,
                    HTTP.UTF_8);
            httppost.setEntity(p_entity);
            HttpResponse response = client.execute(httppost);

            HttpEntity responseEntity = response.getEntity();

            SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
            SAXParser sp = spf.newSAXParser();
            XMLReader xr = sp.getXMLReader();
            viewpartyHandler myLoginHandler = new viewpartyHandler();
            xr.setContentHandler(myLoginHandler);
            xr.parse(retrieveInputStream(responseEntity));
            viewpartyDataset parsedLoginDataSet = myLoginHandler
                    .getParsedweeklypartyData();
}

Error

Answer 1

As the other comments said, that error is usually from not well formed XML.

It does give you a location too:

At line 6, column 2971: not well-formed (invalid token)

Check for special characters; often missed is the ampersand &

This can also be caused by unclosed tags IIRC
