Have you tried replacing the single-quotes in the above fragment with 
the entity &apos; ?

Is that supposed to be a lower-case "s" or an "o" with an acute 
accent?

Like I said, try replacing the single-quotes with their corresponding 
entity. As for other entities, all you have to do is write "&x#" 
(without the quotes, of course), followed by the unicode code for the 
character you want, followed by a semi-colon. For instance, if you 
look up the unicode code for "o" with an acute accent, you'll find 
that it is "00F3", so the resulting entity will be "&x#00F3;" .

You can find unicode character tables for every conceivable language 
at the Unicode web site: http://www.unicode.org/charts .

Cheers,

Erik
