I presume you mean uncommon. The standard allows a lot of layout choices.

It does open in calibre and in epubreader. Even if it is malformed, which I will investigate, it needs to fail more gracefully.

It does not crash in .5.3.
The crash is caused by the DOCTYPE definition

If you change the doctype in the content files from
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
to the usual
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
then you get the attached file which loads fine.

I assume the first doctype is a valid EPUB doctype as it loads in 0.5.3.

I'm not sure what part of Sigil changed that affects this, so maybe user_none can comment.

That original attached epub never did crash my 0.5.902 build on Ubuntu 11.10 (built against Qt4.7.4). Perhaps it's a Qt4.8.2 Webkit thing, considering it works on 0.5.3 (Qt4.7.4) as well. The Windows beta binaries all include 4.8.2, right?

Yes, thanks. That's a better choice of words.

meme- As you said now no problem loading.

It is very useful for Sigil to be very tolerant on loading and strict on saving, since I get these epubs from various sources, none of which I consider very reliable.

Thanks for figuring it out.

Am I missing something—or is the 0.5.902 version no longer on the downloads page? I've forced refreshed the page and I still see nothing but 0.5.3.

0.5.902 was removed as there are enough testers providing feedback.

Can't find * or ? or . in BV

The Find/Replace doesn't find asterisks, question marks or full stops in BV. Works fine in CV.

Closing thread because the beta downloads are not longer available. Enough feedback was provided to know what needs to be done.
