How should you head up an XML file?

i'm wondering if it's imperitive place...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

at top of xml files? can use <xml> ?

i ask, i'm using flash , php create xml file. works, notice want include quotes (single or double), either flash or php adding slashes, end with...

<?xml version=/"1.0/" encoding=/"utf-8/"?>

i can't find way solve problem, wondering if it's ok take line out altogether? works, want make sure it's not needed.

thanks guys.
