Find/Replace Adds New Styles?
For some reason, in addition to my normal find/replace woes involving HTML entities, using Find/Replace on all HTML pages seems to frequently add:
@page { margin-bottom: 5.000000pt; margin-top: 5.000000pt; } to the <style> section at the top of the code. Doing more replaces adds additional blank lines to the section until I have a huge empty space at the top of every page. HTML Tidy doesn't fix it (Tidy hasn't seemed to do much even when it's supposedly on since the new version hit.) What's up with that? |

First what version are you using?

I have noticed the blank lines too. I don't recall when, but it seems to me that the blank lines are an illusion, if you click in the code view everything should update and you will see your normal page. |

This part might be true; it could be some other program I'm using that insists on adding that string (Calibre could well be at fault).

I guess someone more knowledgeable will have to answer this. If tidy wasn't doing anything when I replace <p> with <h2> I would have to change all of the backend tags and I definitely don't have to do that. |

I have an @page in my stylesheet, but do not increase each page. I did find out that the iBooks program doesn't like the @page and act strange on it.

I do that a lot too, but have noticed that tidy usually adds a <br> tag before the closing <h2> tag. Not that it alters the format of the book. Last edited by paulfiera; 10-03-2011 at 10:05 AM. |
