The tag is closed,, but I'm getting this error in ePubChecker. WTF!!! Maybe I'm missing something, but I've doubled checked and I'm still receiving this error. Does somebody have a suggestion?

In the spiritual and philosophical systems of Asia, the universe is considered to be “powered” by an energy known variously asprana, qi, or ki. This is the energy that causes galaxies to form, stars to burn, and planets to orbit and spin. All things are “fueled” by prana, which is not only a kind of energy, but also a kind of vibration, intelligence, or consciousness. There are no sufficient English words to translate the precise meaning of prana and its uses in all contexts. In India it is often referred to as “the shadow of God,” meaning that it is as inseparable from the divine intelligence as you are from your own shadow.The human body, too, depends on prana for its functioning. In this sense we can think of prana as a kind of life force that flows through the body. Prana is responsible for the creation of the physical body of the fetus in the womb. The metabolic processes of the body extract prana from the food we eat and the air we breathe and use this prana as fuel. We also receive prana directly from the environment (from the sun, wind, and so on). The life force not only keeps the machinery of the body running, but also supplies information and intelligence to the systems of the body and the consciousness of the mind. The medical systems of Asia (such as ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine) depend on a complex understanding of the life force in human beings as the bedrock of their medical model. In recent years these alternative and complementary therapies have gained widespread use in America and Europe (as well as their native cultures) because of their effectiveness in the prevention and treatment of illness. Clearly, there is powerful evidence to support the use of the life force model in the field of human wellness.

Your ePub needs fixing. Use Sigil to fix it. You need to split the HTML into no larger then 300K parts. Also, you need to include the fonts in the OPF. You have IDs missing in the OPF. You have images not in the OPF. You have an href pointing to a non-existent font.

Load it into Sigil, validate it and then fix all the errors.

PeterT · 02-12-2013, 06:05 PM

There also seems to be some case issues; some of the fonts are listed in Fonts; others in fonts.

Also, what are all the 0 byte files in the fonts directory?

@JSWolf; I see no sign of html files larger than 300k! I see a single HTML file that is 31k in size.

That was my mistake. Thanks for catching it.

But, the code inside the HTML needs fixing. It is very very sloppy.

Sample code from the HTML...

Code:

<p class="Normal para-style-override-3"><span class="Normal char-style-override-9" xml:lang="en-US">7. </span><span class="char-style-override-9">Sahasrara</span></p>

Also, have a look at all the error epubcheck found...

Spoiler:

My suggestion is to break down this ePub and rebuild it in Sigil.

Alright guys, JSWolf & PeterT thanks for your help. I finally fixed the errors with a html validator.
Thanks, T—

Did you run the ePub through epubcheck 3.0 to see that it validates. Just because the HTML validates doesn't mean the ePub (as a whole) will validate.

In this case, it was just the problematic HTML that was causing problems. I spotted the following open paragraphs without to close them, plus several instances of in between paragraphs.

There are many mantras which are said to promote wellness. The Healing Mantras program uses three which are thought to be especially potent. Each one activates a different aspect of divinity, and all three may be used together to obtain benefit.

You can also get into trouble when you leave an </a> within the paragraph. It will report it as a paragraph error instead of an anchor error in flightcrew.
