    <thetext>When an HTML5 document is submitted for validation that contains an hellip entity, the following error is given &quot;reference to undeclared general entity hellip.&quot; This does not occur on validator.nu, and according to the list of named character references (http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/named-character-references.html), this is still valid.</thetext>

    <thetext>If you&apos;re seeing the message &quot;reference to undeclared general entity hellip&quot;, it&apos;s because your document is being parsed as &quot;XML; don&apos;t load external entities&quot; instead of HTML. So you may need to manually set the validator to one of the HTML5 presets (instead of the XHTML5 ones).

I don&apos;t know why you&apos;d be seeing different behavior between the W3C Nu Validator and the validator.nu, but if you can point me to a URL I can check with, I&apos;ll do that.</thetext>
