You need to be a detective to notice that on the first line, your "iso" is small caps while mine was "ISO" and that the quotes need to be " and not '. Also, my DOCTYPE URI was different from yours. The writers of these tools IMHO really do a great disfavour to the community by not providing any meaningful error messages. It certainly would be possible to utter something like <"ISO-8859-1" unknown encoding> or <DOCTYPE xyz not found at URI uvw...> that would hopefully have brought me on the right track without having to waste bandwidth and bother you all... Anyway, thanks to everybody who helped - it now works for me.
