What do they mean and where do I find them in the epub book?

Many thanks.

ERROR OPS/body3.xhtml Line No 25 Position 642 value of attribute "href" is invalid; must be a URI

ERROR OPS/body3.xhtml Line No 28 Position 23 element "p" not allowed here; expected the element end-tag or element "li"

Welcome to MobileRead forums.

Firstly, could I suggest that you have this transferred to the ePub forum? There are a lot of expert people there who don't necessarily come to this forum.

Secondly, could I ask how familiar you are with HTML and CSS? We need to know at what level you are to be able to give an understandable response.

Thirdly, the best way I know is to look at the HTML.

I think the first and third errors are reasonably clear: there are 'href' tags in your ePub which need to point to a URL.

The second error may be because you've left out a "</p>" tag before line 28. We probably need to see the HTML before we can give a definite answer.
