error- line 4: attribute value expected ????
I just updated to the latest verson of Sigil, and suddenly when I save my WORD files as filtered web page, and try to open in Sigil I get an error message:
Not loaded due to invalid content or not well formed XML line 4: attribute value expected Some of these are just plain short text files written just to see if I can import anything at all. I get it for everything. So this is on a Win7PC, word07, and nothing unusual I can think of at all. |

Ok, I went and found a 6.1 version of Sigil, installed that, and the files that did give me the above issues, now seem to open fine.
I'd like to see if I could help the kindly coders figure this out, so if anyone has any ideas on what I need to send them, let me know. As I said ANY of my word files sacved as filtered, web page cause the issue in 6.2, not just one or two files. The same files work OK in 6.1 |

You just have to make sure your preferences are set to Pretty Print Tidy.

I had installed that macro, but life came up and didn't get to use it until the trial expired. Not sure I really use it enough to make it worth while, however I am still pretty nervous that if I upgrade sigil any more it'll keep not working on my files. I'll have to play on a different machine.
There is a SF novel in which machines finally revolt because they just can not deal with the formatting in the latest WORD update! |
