A strange recipe
Hi I've been doing a recipe for dowloading Europa Press news.
It works fine if I download it in lrf format or in mobi but when I try to download it as epub, it doesn't work, and the contents of the articles doesn't appear. I wonder why could this be. Any idea? I've attached a zip file with the recipe and the downloaded news as a sample. Last edited by lynxpardina; 04-25-2011 at 06:29 PM. |

It will be because there is some html in the downloaded pages that the epub viewer doesn't like. You will need to look through them to figure out what it is and remove it.

Well I cannot find the problem, anyway it started in the very same moment I converted it from automatic recipe to advanced, while as automatic it downloads more or less fine as advanced it doesn't work (downloading as epub)
I've tried the recipe included in calibre with the same result. I have reinstalled calibre, just in case anything could be wrong in my installation but with no result. I wonder if the recipe included in calibre for europa press works fine for others downloading it as epub. |

Hi, I'm the creator of europa press' recipe, sorry for no posting on months on this forum. I want to take recipes again, maybe in a couple of weeks I can check some recipes I've made (20 minutos, LNE, etc...)
Hi all EDIT--> The recipe works for me in a Kindle 3 device. Last edited by tolyluis; 05-03-2011 at 02:38 PM. |

Hi, well I'm using the one I made but downloading it as mobi (your works fine also downloading it as mobi) but when I donwload it as epub it doesn't work.
It's a little bizarre, I just wanted to find out why. I'll try to work out why but one day with time ... ;-) |
