You might want to look at the example I pointed to. That is definitely an epub3 and uses epub3 only tags. Just opening it an epub2 only app has some formatting problems. For most of the epub3 books I have found, changing the version from 3.0 to 2.0 is enough. But, this needed more work. And I couldn't reproduce some of the style in epub2, so I left as epub3 and a kepub.
