I apologise for lack of information. I have just checked and realised that I uninstalled version 1.3 because I couldn't get it to work and went back to version 1.2 which works perfectly. So I have now uninstalled v1.4 and gone back to v1.2 again for the same reason.

I don't know why it errors when validating with Flight Crew. As I said, if I make a copy of another .xhtml/html/htm page and rename it to my preference it works perfectly with no errors.

Also I noticed in this newer version I get a load of extraneous amp; in the <dc:description></dc> description field and when I convert it in Calibre these show up — see attached pic — it just plain looks wrong. This does not happen in Version 1.2.

Also, after converting with Calibre and then opening the converted file with Sigil it always tells me there are errors and do I want to correct them? I always say no and open the file with Sigil and check myself and always there are no errors according to both Flight Crew's validation and Sigil's own validation.

Perhaps it's because I am still using Windows 7 which causes it?

Although I intend to carry on using Windows 7 for as long as possible.
