Undefined entity   while XML parsing error in firefox
Raw
gistfile1.html
XML parsing does not support   entity.   is XHTML entity. If we parse the html or xml or html as xml then you get "Undefined entity" error in firefox error console. To make it working use unicode of   (non-breakibg space character)   or simply put space (" " or  ).
for example :
<div> &nbsp; hello I am going to break. If you are going to use xml parser :( </div>
Corrected as :
<div> &#160; hello I am going to break. If you are going to use xml parser :( </div>
