an entity-ref is an extended flow object james threw into jade to make
it useable as a transformation engine, so you have to use it in a
"make" expression, of the form

<code>

(make entity-ref name: "name-of-entity")

</code>

If that still doesn't work, make sure you have *declared* entity refs
as extended flow objects in the prologue of the document (assuming
you're using jade) -- see <a
href="http://www.groveware.com/~graydon/idiots.html";>The Simipletons
Guide to SGML Transformations in Jade</a> for more details.
