Android readers -- any variety I've tried. Have downloaded/installed several on rooted Nook color, Nook tablet, Samsung Galaxy Note. None seem to read the <start> code correctly.
Calibre on PC reads it correctly.
iBooks on iPod reads it correctly.
Google Chrome reads it correctly.

The problem seems to be how readers/browsers interpret HTML and how strict they are in sticking to HTML4 or 5 and deprecating that <start> command.

I suppose my real question is one of coding in Sigil. That software automatically inserts all of the XML version information at the top of the document. Would removing that info correct the reader problem?? allowing the reader to work in HTML5 mode which allows the <start> command to work properly?

If removing that info from the document will correct the issue, how do I do it? When I delete that and leave only the HTML5 required coding Sigil automatically corrects my "bad" coding and reinserts all the XML information. How do I turn that automatic correcting feature off in Sigil?
