An > html file is liquid - it fills any window or page size. As Dave Royal noted to Carlos, all paths are relative to $DOCUMENT_ROOT. Also, as Dave noted, EPUB is essentially a packaged, standardized container built decades later on top of XHTML and CSS, long after HTML documentation was already widespread in CD ROM supplied documentation and help systems. Looking up Carlos' Calibre question, apparently Calibre can convert a complex multi-file HTML book into a single EPUB/AZW3 file, as long as we give it the entire directory (usually as a ZIP) if it is formatted well. 1. Feed the ZIP to Calibre, 2. Convert to EPUB, 3. Output a single, portable book with all images and subfiles embedded. Once Calibre converts the zip to an epub, it can be copied to Android. -- Usenet allows good friends around the world to discuss their experiences.
