DOCTYPE in XSL-stylesheet while using XMLDOM with JScript

Question: In the XSL file below I put a part of the code
(concerning the euro-sign) in comment. If I remove the
comment then it doesn't work anymore. How can this be solved?

I run Test.html with Internet Explorer on Window-XP.
Below I give all the files I'm using.

Look at following code:

File: Test.html

<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript" src="z_transform.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script language="javascript">
myXml = "test.xml";
myXsl = "test.xsl";
transformXsl();
</script>
</body>
</html>

File: Test.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<test amount="20.4">
</test>

File: Test.xsl

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/
Transform">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
Amount = <xsl:value-of select="/test/@amount"/>

</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

File: z_transform.js

function transformXsl()
{
var rSourceDoc,rStyleDoc;

rSourceDoc = new ActiveXObject("microsoft.xmldom");
rSourceDoc.async="false";
rSourceDoc.load(myXml);

rStyleDoc = new ActiveXObject("microsoft.xmldom");
rStyleDoc.async="false";
rStyleDoc.load(myXsl);

document.write(rSourceDoc.transformNode(rStyleDoc) );
}

rSourceDoc.async = false;

rStyleDoc.async = false;
As your XSL contains an incomplete DTD you need to set
rStyleDoc.validateOnParse = false;
to sucessfully load and transform.

Note that XML and XSLT as an XML application fully support Unicode so
there is no need to define entities like euro, you can just use the
character itself "â‚¬" like I do in this post.

The problem is not the â‚¬, but how to use ENTITIES in this situation!

As I said, if you set
rStyleDoc.async = false;
rStyleDoc.validateOnParse = false;
then you can load your stylesheet with the entity declarations.
