Hi guys,
I'm moving my book to ebook, so I export to XHTML and then use Calibre to get
EPUB and AZW3.
I'm not particularly good at CSS or XHTML, and have the following problem:
I export my book with LyX to XHTML.
Bibliography labels show as
[number] entry
by means of :before :after tags inside the class spec; the text in the entry
itself has only the number

However, when Calibre imports this, it ignores the span class, so
bibliographical entries show really ugly:
numberentry

I contacted the developer, who told me that most ebooks have a poor handling of
classes and many will ignore :before and :after tags anyway, therefore not
properly showing bibliographical entries.

Besides pre-processing the XHTML before sending to Calibre (that is my last
resort), I wonder if I can play with LyX; I've found stdstruct.inc, but as I've
said, I'm not particularly good at CSS or XHTML.
Any ideas ?

Best regards!

PS: BTW, I can switch the bibliography style if needed, but would like to keep
the one I've already used in the book. Maybe for next one.
