The CSS Validator is right. Your DTD references external documents such
as http://www.degruchy.org/html/dtd/xhtml-lat1.ent but these documents
do not exist. The MarkUp Validator does not complain because it
recognizes the public identifer "-//W3C//ENTITIES Latin 1 for XHTML//EN"
and has a local copy of the document identified by it.
