well if it's a parse error then that is from an xml parser, which
doesn't of course know anything about xpath and considers all of the
above just as a simple string. Since that string contains ' characters
you can't put it in a ' delimited attribute value you have to use
"-delimited value, or write the ' as &apos;
so either of

select="translate('what&quote;s  new','&quote;','i')"

or

select='translate(&apos;what&quote;s  new&apos;,&apos;&quote;&apos;,&apos;i&apos;)'
