After having being awakened by a dog at 330am, my concern over this epub matter was on my mind. Thank you very much for your reply and your prompt attention to this matter.
I am not a techie, but I do try to figure out basics, so here is what I found:
The word "value" was written after the attribute "li" which I believe is "list." The list in the book in the book has seven (7) entries. Entries 1-5 are listed on page 165, entries 6 and 7 are listed on page 165, which is the following page.
It appears that when you are beginning a list, it will look like this, just under the heading on page 164 of the book:

<ol class="list_">
<li class="block_250">If the OIG investigators stated that the radiation[/I][/I][/B]

"ol" evidently tells you a list is beginning, then the attribute "li" tells you that the list starts at that point. There is no number given as the first entry of the list, the number one (1) somehow appears in the text. I don't know how that works, but I see the rationality.
The last entry on the list, on page 164 is Number 5.
Number 6 begins on the following page.

<li value="6" class="block_254">The doctors withheld this information from the patients. The radiation therapists could not tell the patient that the doctor did not review the treatment film to make sure of the positioning and dosage.</li>
<li class="block_253">The patient cannot file a malpractice claim unless they know that something was wrong with their treatment. Although others in the department knew the care and treatment given to the patients was inappropriate[/I]

As you see, it appears the word "value" is listed to tell the program that the list begins at Number 6.

I did look at W3Schools and found the attribute "value."

If I remove the word "value" from the code, the number 6 will disappear, and the indentation of the listed paragraph moves.

I will send your reply to Ingram and see is there is a simple keystroke they can do.

Also, I see words highlighted in the coding. Are those highlighted words there as a reference for Calibre?

I hope this issue with Calibre can help others.

Thank you again,

Jim
