D'oh! The html entities in my last post showed as quotation marks (doesn't seem to be a way to disable html).

If anyone is interested, there's a list of the html entities supported by mobipocket here. Unfortunately, the formatting is pretty scrambled. It seems to be the same as the Open eBook list which you can download from the ipdf.org site - the link is here: http://www.idpf.org/oebps/oebps1.2/d.../oeb12-dtd.zip. The list has the suffix .ent but it should be possible to open it in a decent text editor. [Edit - direct link here: http://openebook.org/dtds/oeb-1.2/oeb12.ent opens in a browser]
