2. I assume that javascripts in epubs are useless, yes? Epubs are static documents and javascripts are dynamic stuff that are not supposed to be in epubs/ebooks in the first place, right? If these things are true:

Install the epubcheck plugin. Load the ePub in the Calibre editor. Use the editor's checker and epubcheck to check all the ePub. Then you can use the editor to fix the errors.

As for removing javascript, install the Modify ePub plugin to dump all javascript.
