epub 3.0 with ncx, example please?
I'm working on my first 3.0 epub and having trouble with listing ncx in the opf as a backup for older readers. The idpf EPUB Validator says
Spine item with non-standard media-type 'application/x-dtbncx+xml' with no fallback I have this in the manifest<item id="ncx" href="toc.ncx" media-type="application/x-dtbncx+xml"/> and this in the spine <spine> Thanks!
<itemref idref="cover" linear="no"/> <itemref idref="book" linear="yes"/> <itemref idref="toc" linear="no"/> <itemref idref="ncx" linear="no"/> </spine> |

I'm not sure if there's anything special about configuring a fallback ncx in epub3, but regardless ... I can't imagine that the ncx would be listed as an itemref in the spine—linear or no.
I'm pretty sure a fallback ncx is handled just like an ncx in epub2 -- In the manifest: <item id="ncx" href="toc.ncx" media-type="application/x-dtbncx+xml"/> and the spine: <spine toc="ncx"> <itemref idref="cover" linear="no"/> <itemref idref="book" linear="yes"/> <itemref idref="toc" linear="no"/> </spine> |

What is your target audience for this ePub 3? There are very few apps/programs that will handle ePub 3. It might be a waste of time to work with ePub 3. Also, there is no indication that ADE currently will work with an ePub 3 with ePub 2 fallback.
