G'day, Here are the modifications that I needed to make to the exported html file (using the standard exporter) in order to get a valid ePub document. http://threepress.org/document/epub-validate provides an on-line validation service.
My document is relatively simple, but does have footnotes, citations and formatting commands. I will be happy to add a fuller description to worg if someone will point me to some instructions. 1. Make the html file have utf-8 encoding; there are probably several ways to do this, but I used the emacs23 menu MULE options on the org document. 2 Change the language statement by removing the "lang=" attribute: From: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> To: <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"> 3 Change anchor descriptions associated with section headings by removing "name=" entries, for example, From: <a name="sec-1" id="sec-1"></a> To: <a id="sec-1"></a> NOTE: this can now be done by customising org-export-html-headline- anchor-format (Thanks Bastien!!) 4. Change anchor class="footref" by replacing "name=" with "id=". For example: from: <a class="footref" name="fnr.2" href="#fn.2"> to: <a class="footref" id="fnr.2" href="#fn.2"> 5. Change anchor class="footnum" by replacing "name=" with "id=". For example: from: <a class="footnum" name="fn.1" href="#fnr.1">1</a> to: <a class="footnum" id="fn.1" href="#fnr.1">1</a> Cheers, Alan -- Alan L Tyree http://www2.austlii.edu.au/~alan Tel: 04 2748 6206 sip:172...@iptel.org
