EPUB validation trouble

Dear Tehs
One of your number has suggested you may be able to help me with (GODDAMNED!) Epub coding.

 

I have a couple of questions:

 

Can anyone suggest any good sources of info for translating error messages relating to validation errors?

 

Does anyone know of a tool that is more helpful than Epubchecker at identifying the route causes of validation errors? Like something that highlights them: a wysiwyg validation tool.

 

I am near my wits end. Here is a little movie about my plight - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBGVO5Q-u4A

 

Thanks
Francis

Wish I could help but I can't.

 

But on the bright side, that movie about made me piss myself! Good job with that one!

Glad you liked it. Hope you didn't get any on your keyboard.

Hello! Welcome! Tea?

 

I know nothing about EPUB validation, but quite a lot about pub validation (how good the beers are, ease of getting tables, whether the toilets are comfortable enough to get a decent night's sleep in, that kind of thing).

Have you tried Sigil? I don't know anything about this but your effort of making a film made me look and apparently this is wysiwyg and recently got validation built into it. http://code.google.com/p/sigil/downloads/list

Oh yeah?

 

Impress me with your pub knowledge.

 

Name the three greatest beers in the world (this is a trick question).

 

Name two good pubs in the centre of Manchester.

 

What is the other colour of Newcastle Ale?

 

Where is your favourite pub and why?

 

Bring it.

Good tip.

 

I am already looking at this but I don't know that I have the most recent with validation. I will look at this next.

 

Cheers ya fucka.

I hope to do more of them.

I'd like to know the good pubs in Manchester answer. I should know it but don't. Maybe the Marble Arch for its range of beer and nice food, it's not quite centre though.

There's a decent ale pub down a side street somewhere in the centre. I've only ever been there pissed though, so no idea how to find it or what it's called :$

Did you buy a hat?

Not on that occasion. I feel hat buying is best accompanied by yorkshire pudding eating.
