Conversion of eReader to ePub breaks footnotes
I've already opened a ticket for this, but I'm hoping that someone can tell me I've simply done something stupid. Anyway...
Or maybe I made an obvious mistake in the above. I've opened ticket 3806 and have attached a sample pdb file as a source to provoke the bug. Xenophon |

It seems to be a flaw in the epub firmware. Links do not work correctly. Doesn't matter what the source is. The problem seems to be worse going backward than forward from what I remember. Very aggravating.

@Xenophon, I'm going to look into and hopefully fix this issue sometime this week.

I converted from HTML to ePub with Calibre. The book had a lot of footnotes, all working OK in my browser. I transferred the resulting ePub to my Sony Reader, and they are not working anymore (always going to the same page).

Endnotes do work fine in ADE on Sony Readers. I've converted Discworld eBooks over to ePub and the endnotes are fine. Not a problem with the internal links.

I was able to reproduce the bug Xenophon reported with the test case that was submitted. I've committed a fix.
