<metadata>
<title>In The 80's Dancehall</title>
<dc:identifier id="bookid" />
<dc:date xmlns

pf="http://www.idpf.org/2007/opf" opf:event="publication">2012-07-09</dc:date>
<dc:language>en</dc:language>
<dc:language>en</dc:language>
<dc:language>en</dc:language>
<meta content="Adobe InDesign" name="generator" />
<meta content="0.5.3" name="Sigil version" />
<meta name="cover" content="FrontCovercrop590x750.jpg" />

Ummm. That's not how you add a title to an opf file. Best use the graphical menu interface... Edit->Meta Editor and fill in the Title box.

... and why do you have three identical language entries??

It just amazes me the lengths users go to do it the 'difficult way'

when pressing F8 is so simple.
In cases of a timestamp error, just opening and closing the editor fixes the issue.

Thx, I see what you mean. I used the graphical to add the title.

Just have this other ONLY error generated

whitespace expected, see screenshot.

thx

Ah, thx for that as I hate writing code and I have been looking at this for too long, need a bit of a rest.

thanks for the fresh eyes!
