Question p attribute error on validation

error message when validating the epub with http://threepress.org/document/epub-validate/

element "p" from namespace "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" not allowed in this context

this appears to have come from adding chapters with a styling using H1 in word (so that calibre picks them up) in the .rtf doc (used instead of .doc as that wont work in calibre)

otherwise we managed before to get a valid file. Just that we realised the TOC wasn't right.

How do other people solve the TOC issues for a paperback style novel.

thanks for any help

This is the calibre forum. We will be glad to answer calibre specific questions but for epub validation questions you might do better in the Epub forum.

This is a 'line splitting' question' caused by incorrectly applying a H# tag to a file to attempt to get Calibre to build a TOC on conversion that does not contain the normal 'Chapter'... trigger, Keywords. (Personally, I use Sigil and skip this conversion step, dance )


This is where this topic crosses over to the EPUB section

The message say the user typed <H1> in the middle of a normal paragraph (just like it appears here).

H# tags shall only exist outside of a Paragraph block. The problem may also be, there is not a matching closing tag (</H1>) within the same block.



The Open Office [insert Plug for both here ] plug-in 'Writer2EPUB' works a treat for making EPUB from well formatted DOC files.
