hmmm ... mozilla gives me an XML parsing error, undefined entity, line 791, column 28, and that's it:

<revnumber>Working Draft &ldquo;Beta etc ...
-------------------^

why would mozilla fail for me and work for others? no, no, don't
answer that ...
I knew I should have bookmarked that link: I read an email exchange on one of the Mozilla developer lists describing the parse/validation strategy Mozilla uses. Essentially, it is "incomplete". One result is that entities such as &ldquo; stored externally to the DTD are not resolved (or normalized?). If I understand what I read and it is accurate, it may be the entity that is generating the error for you.

Of course, this is a "what" response, not a "why" response. :-)
