Ah, ok. I thought there was a different size limit for covers, but I probably just missed a warning from mobigen when it couldn't reencode the cover image below 64k. If it's just a PalmOS limitation, then I'll make image file size reduction an option rather than required.

Ah, oops. That's my fault, and easily enough fixed.

The reason for the "two links" is that the source mark-up uses the CSS 2 'display: table-row' and 'display: table-cell' to create a virtual table where the <a/> element is a row. In CSS 2 compliant renderers the whole contents line is a single link. The only sane way to handle that sort of thing in Mobipocket markup is alas to reproduces the link in each block-level element the source <a/> elemnt encloses.

Nothing is lost, but it's ugly.

Eww. Ok, I'll ignore 'display: table-*' then.

Other than what I mentioned I mostly just wanted to make sure the file actually worked. Maybe check to make sure the "uncrossable" sections like the footnotes and CC license work properly. And oggle the poetry bits (e.g. in chapter 26), which in the source are formatted entirely with CSS
