AHA!!! Would you believe it? From earlier reading at jedisaber.com and other instructional websites I'd changed the OEBPS/container.opf to a Backslash; well it's running on Windoze after all. Nothing spotted it but in sheer desperation I returned it to a forward slash and it worked!!!!!
Why didn't they say "just use this file as it is". It says it points to the root folder, but it's a RELATIVE root folder, not an ABSOLUTE root folder. JeeeeZ!
ebook now passes all the validation and uploads to the ereader. OK it took two attempts to upload, don't know why, and the Cover picture is missing. oh and it has an extra page one which is blank. BUT it gets there and is readable.
YEEEHAAA!!!!!!! It's only taken me a week of nights....
