I got this strange error, see attachment, and I was wondering is it a bug. Error shows up for some of my ebooks but for some it doesn't. At first, I was thinking is there something wrong with my way to zip my ebooks but I have used the same workflow for all my ebooks. Why this error shows up for some of my books and not all of them? For me, it looks like it's a bug because OEBPS folder isn't required in the OPF manifest as you know.

See here. That's a bug occurring when you have same-file fragment references, i.e., things like href="#section-1" (with no filename before the #).

I have a question: is FlightCrew embedded in Sigil 0.3.0, or is it still a separate program??

Question :

I've downloaded FlightCrew-gui-0.7.0-Windows-x86_64-Setup.exe on two separate occasions and they appear in my 'downloads list'. Norton Internet Security is preventing my access to the .exe file, to run it.

Is this a problem anybody else has had ?


Edit : Norton has quarantined the file....

Still separate. It will be embedded in Sigil some time after 0.3.0.

It's a false positive. There is no malware in FlightCrew. You can always build from source if you doubt me.

It may be a false positive, I don't doubt, but I can't 'get' to the file on my PC - not to worry at the moment, there will come a time when Symantec will realise - so far according to my help message only 5 other Norton product users have accessed the file ....

I just ran FlightCrew get the following error that I have no idea how to fix...

Quote:
element 'svg' is not allowed for content model '(p|h1|h2|h3|h4|h5|h6|div|ul|ol|dl|pre|hr|blockquo te|address|fieldset|table|switch|form|noscript|ins |del|script)'
the code it refers to is ...

Code:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" height="100%" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 470 800" width="100%">
	<rect fill="#000007" height="100%" width="470" x="0" y="0"/>
	<image height="800" transform="translate(0 0)" width="510" xlink:href="MSRCover.jpg"/>
</svg>
Now the ePub fully validates.

Just fixed the problem. The solution is...

Code:
<div><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" height="100%" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 470 800" width="100%">
	<rect fill="#000007" height="100%" width="470" x="0" y="0"/>
	<image height="800" transform="translate(0 0)" width="510" xlink:href="MSRCover.jpg"/>
</svg></div>

Below is one line of many reported by Flight Crew on the attached sigil file.

Code:
The Voice on the Wire.epub/OEBPS/Text/CHAPTER_I.xhtml|32|attribute 'name' is not declared for element 'a'
Opening the file in Sigil and going to the indicated line, I find nothing even similar. This occurs throughout the the file. Can someone help me interpret the message?

well, this error (from epubcheck, but comparable to FC)

Code:
ERROR: voice_on_the_wire.epub/OEBPS/Text/CHAPTER_I.xhtml(32): attribute "name" not allowed at this point; ignored
is referring to this line

Code:
  <p><a name="2HCH0001"></a></p>
but the code looks legit to me.
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_name.asp

unless you can't have just an <a> tag alone inside a <p> or some gotcha like that. I'll be looking forward to finding out what's up myself.

PS: Tidy says "Warning <a> cannot copy name attribute to id" but I don't get that either.

If I'm not mistaken, the "name" attribute is depreciated. You are supposed to use the "id" attribute instead.

And note that you do not need an <a> to set an anchor with "id", you can add the "id" attribute to any element and have it work like an anchor, like this:

Code:
<p id="interesting-paragraph">This paragraph is very interesting.</p>

<p>The <a href="#interesting-paragraph">above paragraph</p> was very interesting.</p>

I understand all that you guys have said. Where I have a question is on the line number reported by Flight Crew. When I open the section called out, go to codeview and scroll to that line number as shown on the left of the display, there is nothing related to the error reported. What am I doing wrong or minunderstanding?

As far as "id" and "name" goes, I use Tidy 4.0 as a pretty printer for the PG files. It always replaces "id" with "id' + "name".

<a id=...></a> becomes <a id=... name=...></a>. This format is used through out many PG files and has never caused a problem before. If it's not broke, leave it alone.

You are forgetting that Sigil will pretty-print the XHTML code when it opens the epub, thus adding whitespace for readability. The line numbers will sometimes not match.

Extract the epub file you fed to FC and look at the content files; the location will be correct.
