well, i have one or two, but i haven't yet made them "public" on feedbooks, because i'm still editing them. the example code shows basically the same way i used this in the epubs, though the words are different. this works, at least on my prs-600 and ADE, and mostly works in FBReader (the formatting is off, but fbreader doesn't full support epub anyway).
do you want a pic of <dl> on the sony reader? |

To make columns in an ePub, use the following CSS property on any block element, such as "body" or "div":
Code:
oeb-column-number: [integer] | auto; Quote:
Pretty cool! =) |

Code:
span.predrop { font-size: 25%; font-weight: normal; vertical-align: top; line-height: 1.9; margin-left: -0.5em } Code:
<span class="drop">‘I</span> then the left margin of the dropcap region shifts over to the right by about 0.5em. Adding the predrop span as originally coded doesn't change this, though it aligns properly when I add the margin-left correction. My familiarity with CSS is stilll somewhat rudimentary, so I wonder if there's something I'm missing here, though it works right now. |

...OOOoooooohhhh....
now that is a very nifty trick [I also see Nrapallo mentioned it on .imp]. I only tested this on a small book and on ADE (and yes, even with the full width of my PC screen) the font has to be tweeked to the minimum. thank you - I shall now go and 'play' some more with this ..... |

svg on title page
I have bit of a problem:
I made an svg file (and validated it at w3 validator) - made an xhtml file using <object> to link to the svg file (and validated the xhtml at w3) then I made an epub using the xhtml file as cover and validated the book at epubcheck... and yet neither Boookworm nor Firefox add-on play the cover on browser the cover page plays... any ideas? cheerd, Jussi |

Thanks ... can't verify on ADE (I'm on Ubuntu) - then again may be there
isn't a problem in the book itself: when opening the book on bookworm using my S60 mobilephone the cover plays correctly... I attach the book if someone's interested enough to take a look cheers, Jussi |

the cover shows in ADE, but very very small.
chapter one is on its own, but chapter two expands out to the remaining chapters and the notes. the picture at the end of Alphonse Aulard shows up well .... as to everything else, the display looks good, expands into two columns and has a background to it.... |

yes - as far as I can see, in ADE, it does ....
it also works on the PC version of the Sony Reader - although on that I only get a single column. there may be coding issues with the TOC, but that's a minor issue .... |

One sometimes wants to have a way to detect which reader is being used, so that some feature can be disabled or some workaround activated. There is no standard way to detect the reader, but something can be done to detect the Adobe engine, and activate or deactivate CSS stuff depending on whether the book is being rendered by Adobe or not.
The "trick" is just using Adobe's conditional CSS in the page template file (xpgt). Since at the moment only Adobe understands and uses the xpgt, whatever you put in this file will only be read by Adobe. So you could have, in your standard CSS file: Code:
.ade { display: none; } Code:
<ade:style> <ade:styling-rule selector=".noade" display="none"/> <ade:styling-rule selector="div.ade" display="block"/> <ade:styling-rule selector="span.ade" display="inline"/> </ade:style> |
