When i define an entity in a DTD and try to use XSL to reformat the XML to HTML,
and the XML uses the defined entity, i get no output at all. Not even an error
message.
(When i use IE, i get what i want.)

When i remove the entity from the XML, the resulting HTML looks correct (but
does not have the entity, of course).

e.g
DTD:
  <!ELEMENT foo (#PCDATA)>
  <!ENTITY copy   "&#169;" >

XML:
  <foo>
    &copy; 1999
  </foo>

XSL (contains):
  <xsl:template match="foo">
    <xsl:copy-of select="*|@*|text()"/>
  </xsl:template>

mozilla doesn't support external entities. If you move the entity-definition 
into the xml-file it should work just fine.
