Dear Malika,

The link to the whole Herodotus seems to still point to an older  
betacode version of Herodotus, while the shorter chunk has the unicode  
version for some reason. By far the best way to retrieve a full XML  
version of the text of Perseus and the Open Greek and Latin Project is  
to go to one of their GitHub repositories.

Perseus Greek: https://github.com/PerseusDL/canonical-greekLit
OGL First1kGreek: http://opengreekandlatin.github.io/First1KGreek/

The text you are looking for is here:  
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PerseusDL/canonical-greekLit/master/data/tlg0016/tlg001/tlg0016.tlg001.perseus-grc2.xml

If you do have further questions, we also starting to build a Q&A  
board regarding the openly-licensed texts in the OGL universe and  
their creation (the board is in its infancy though):  
http://discourse.oglp.io

Best,

Thomas
