I am trying to validate my word document for Smashwords - saved as word 97-2003 - so it is .doc as recommended.

http://validator.idpf.org/

I can't even get it past the initial screen!

Error says: "Detected version: Could not determine version. INTERNAL ERROR

For files other than epubs, mode must be specified! Default version is 3.0."

I tried uploading a document with only the words 'test test' in - this also failed to upload!

I was taught on a course that I could upload a .doc file to this validator.

Help!
