Comments:

Processing instructions are composed of a target and data, and there can be multiple instructions in a given XML file. The target is the first word of the instruction line, and the data is the rest of the line. For example, given the following XML snippet:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" standalone="yes"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="svg_default.css"?>
<!-- testit.xml - generated by Micro Focus-->
<svg

there is a single processing instruction (the stylesheet line). The target is the first word (xml-stylesheet), and the data is the rest of the information, not including the question marks (?): type="text/css" href="svg_default.css".
