body
{
font-family: "100 %", serif, sansserif;
}
Not common, I know, and from your comments, not acceptable; but it still passed verification through FlightCrew and the Epubcheck 0.3.7 plugins lurking within my Sigil. So I took the additional step just now of sending it out to validator.idpf.org and epubconversion.com who just didn't seem to find anything wrong with that terminology; each came back with a clean bill. Which doesn't make it right, I know. 
You have my solemn promise! |
IIRC Flight-crew never validated a Stylesheet, only the XHTML. And then, only checked inline styles for parsing errors.
