Correction - forgot to eliminate pointys

Having seen the post about Stylus not fetching referenced DTDs, I made sure my XML was well-formed and put my entity characters inline within the XML. With no apparent pattern, I get an "invalid character entity" error on a number of my entities.

For example: leftpointy!ENTITY emsp "ampersand,poundsignx2003;"rightpointy

(characters for amp and pound replaced to allow display)

IE5 displays them perfectly, but Stylus goes nowhere.

Any ideas?

The entity you are trying to use here is a two-byte character reference. Stylus 1.0 does not have support for unicode character sets.

The next release of Stylus (available in January) will have international character set support.
