You need to stop UBB from trying to treat XML as HTML. Change the option from "using HTML and UBBCode" to "using UBBCode" and wrap XML fragments in [code] and [/code] next time. Since I can't see the XML fragments, I'm not entirely sure what you're asking.
In any case, there's no such thing as a "multi-screen ROM" as such. Many systems gain or lose screens depending on slot options (including arcade systems like Microprose 3D). You can count the number of screens in the default configuration by counting the number of <display> elements inside the <machine> element. Look at e.g. gnw_dkong (two screens), darius (three screens), miexchng (one screen), and whousetc (no screens).
Machines without screens are not necessarily mechanical. They may use multi-segment LED/LCD/VFD displays (e.g. whousetc, aim65), or some other kind of non-video interface. A significant number of these are fully usable in MAME.
