epub validator
Hi. epub validator gave the following errors

What do they mean and where do I find them in the epub book?

Many thanks.

Welcome to MobileRead forums.

Firstly, could I suggest that you have this transferred to the ePub forum? There are a lot of expert people there who don't necessarily come to this forum.

Secondly, could I ask how familiar you are with HTML and CSS? We need to know at what level you are to be able to give an understandable response.

Thirdly, the best way I know is to look at the HTML.

I think the first and third errors are reasonably clear: there are 'href' tags in your ePub which need to point to a URL.

The second error may be because you've left out a "</p>" tag before line 28. We probably need to see the HTML before we can give a definite answer.

Or the second one might be that you have an ordered list and you have started a line in that list but instead of ending it with </li> you have ending it with <p> instead.

As Alex Bell response implies, these are reasons to know a little HTML. If not very familiar, then you can use
http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp
as a resource. It takes things step by step. The only caution is that not all things HTML that work for browsers work in epubs in general or for any specific ereader machine or program.
