Question

Why would I get, “error:Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)”

on this line (which is a comment):

<!-- added fillViewport as preventive measure after reading http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2599837/linearlayout-not-expanding-inside-a-scrollview -->

?

Answer 1

I’m gonna guess you added that comment in the middle of a tag. You can’t do that. This is wrong:

  <ScrollView
     android:... <!-- this won't work -->
     android:...
  >
  </ScrollView>

Just move it to be outside of the < and >.
