I really can't think of why that never occurred to me -- it seems so simple and obvious! 
I do have on question, though, regarding that. I wanted all the various poems to show up in the ToC as they do in the original book, with curly quotes around them. Within the title attribute within the <h2> tag, is there any issues that anyone knows of with having curly quotes within the regular quotes for that title attribute? Like, this is kinda what I end up with (for example)...
<h2 class="hidhead" id="respectable" title="“The respectable folks”"></h2>
In the title attribute, I've got basically two sets of quotes -- one curly, one regular. Should I be using character entities instead there? Or is it fine like that?
Thanks, Hitch -- for making me feel so stupid!  Seriously, thank you for that!  |
It's all right--it's one of the first Sigil tricks I learned. Only works auto-magically in Sigil, mind you. It saves our bacon regularly for things like..."Dedication" "Epigraph," etc.--pages where you mayn't want an actual "chapter title" but want it on the NCX. As far as the curlies, I'd have to go look myself to remember if there are any issues.
