Does calibre support epub switch/case?
Does calibre support the switch/case feature in epub? I tried to create an epub that uses the feature, but it doesn't seem to work right when I view it in calibre. There are two cases, and it should only display one of them, but both are displayed. I can't tell whether I messed up creating the epub, or calibre just doesn't support the feature. This seems to be an EPUB 2 feature: http://idpf.org/epub/20/spec/OPS_2.0...m#Section2.6.3

Try viewing it in another ePub viewer. Adobe Digital Editions might be a good test to see if you have it right. Sigil may also give you some idea if you have it correct.

Good Reading.

calibre doesn't support any ops: namespaced features.

Good suggestion, dwanthny, thanks. Sigil does show signs of understanding the switch/case construct, but it doesn't seem to handle it correctly. (It modifies the html by stripping the <case> and <default> tags while leaving the <switch> tags there.) Unfortunately I can't run Adobe DE, since they don't have a linux version, and I don't own an epub-capable device.

ADE runs absolutely fine under wine! If you are not sure how to best install and run it with wine, just use PlayOnLinux...
