HI. I have searched the forums, an found a few similar threads, but their solutions have not solved my problem.
I am writing a history of photograhy, and have hundreds of paragraphs much like this one...
<p><y>1614</y> An Italian chemist, Angelo Sala, notes that silver nitrate turns black when exposed to the sun, but he sees nothing significant in the change and does not ascribe it to the action of light.</p>
Which formats as:
1614 An Italian chemist, Angelo Sala, notes that silver nitrate turns black when exposed to the sun, but he sees nothing significant in the change and does not ascribe it to the action of light.
The CSS contains this code:
y {
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 1em;
font-family: Arial Black, sans-serif;
text-indent: 2em;
text-align: left;
}
The book is written with Calibre (ePub) and Caliber's "Check book" says it's fine. I can load the file into Sigil and check it with Flightcrew and it passes, without errors. I have uploaded the book to KOBO.com, and KOBO accepts it, as well. I've sold several copies and people have said they love it! So, where's the problem?
I'd like to sell through Smashwords, and so I've run it through ePubCheck, only to get hundreds of errors - one for every entry. "Element y is not allowed anywhere".
Please! What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks, for any and all help.
Telyt.
