I am using LyX 2.0.0 (2011-04-29) on a Ubuntu system with lyx 2.0.0-1
packages. I export XHTML using the lyxhtml export.
My goal is to create mobi (for kindle) and epub (for nook)files. I am
using calibre 0.8.8 for conversion from the XHTML file.
Here are my issues:
1) the XHTML has:
math xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML;
mrow
mfrac
mrowmn1/mn
/mrow
mrowmn3/mn
/mrow
/mfrac
/mrow/math
but the epub shows 13 and mobi has nothing.
Does mobi handle MathML? Maybe you should try using HTML for math export
(under Document Settings Output).
2) Some lyx/tex sections are like First~Second~Third but the lyxhtml
output in my table of contents is FirstSecondThird (no spaces). So I
manually fixed them.
Please report this as a bug on trac and attach a simple example file.
Should be an easy fix.
3) My print cross references say See page elsewhere. I fixed this
with:
sed -e 's,on page \(a href=.*\)elsewhere,\1here,' -e 's,page \(a
href=.*\)elsewhere,\1here,' -e 's,pages \(a
href=.*\)elsewhere/a and \(a href=.*\)elsew,\1here/a and \2,'
I'd be open to suggestions about what this should say. The problem,
obviously, is that XHTML has no concept of pages.
5) My footnotes work with the xhtml ... when I hover over them they
popup. But these hover style footnotes don't work in the calibre viewer.
The document shows the small underlined number but clicking or hovering
on it does nothing.
The xhtml has:
div.foot:hover div.foot_inner {
display: block;
border: 1px double black;
margin: 0em 1em;
padding: 1em;
}
This was missing from the epub stylesheet.
I think the epub and mobi don't support hovering footnotes.
This can be easily customized, and maybe we should just make a module
for it. Do something like this in your LyX file, under Document
Settings Local Layout:
Format 31
InsetLayout Foot
HTMLStyle
now put here whatever CSS you'd like to shape the footnotes...
EndHTMLStyle
End
At some point, we'll also provide the possibility to export footnotes as
endnotes instead. There's some code for this already, in fact, but I
have been too busy to finish it.
6) The xhtml output had links to horizontal rules in my table of
contents:
!-- Output Error: Tags still open in closeFontTags(). Probably not a
problem,
but you might want to check these tags: --!-- Output Error: div
--!-- Output Error: div --!-- Output Error: Tried to close pending
tag `a' when other tags were pending. Last pending tag is
`LyX_parsep_tag'. Tag discarded. --div class='lyxtoc-2' a
href='#magicparlabel-236' class='tocarrow'gt;/a!-- Output Error:
Closing tag `div' when other tags are open, namely: --!-- Output
Error:LyX_parsep_tag --/div
I simple removed that line for each.
Can you provide a simple file showing the problem? This kind of thing is
also fairly easy to fix, usually.

I don't think any devices support MathML yet.
I made that change. And the new xhtml displayed as:
1
-
3
(long vertical vinculum)
So I removed these math fractions from my lyx document and replaced with
the special symbol from the Number Forms category.
This now works for my XHTML and the EPUB and MOBI converted from it. The
XHTML now contains this character: ???
This adds one issue -- I now have some Lyx/LaTeX in my XHTML output (and
EPUB and MOBI):
!-- Preamble Snippets --
\newcommand*\LyXonethird{\mbox{\raisebox{.8ex}{1}\kern-.175em\raisebox{.2ex}{/}\kern-.18em\raisebox{-.2ex}{3}}}
That line is included as content at the start of my document.
I can easily remove it to workaround this issue.

And that worked for me for the XHTML and my epub and mobi files.
(By the way, the \newcommand junk left in my XHTML file as mentioned in
previous email caused calibre to not recognize my footnotes and
converted foot to standard, footlabel to flexurl and footinner to
standard. Once I manually removed that line from the XHTML file, then it

So I don't have foot notes, but simply a note in smaller font and
indented on next line after the superscript number.
Thanks again for the lyx hint.
By the way, my lyx file doesn't seem to have any way to remove the
Local Layout. Even if I clear it, press validate and click ok, then go
back to settings it is there again.

Another issue with lyxhtml export: 7) Index is sorted with uppercase before lowercase; that is all A-Z before any a-z. Anyway to configure it so it will consider the uppercase/lowercase the same for sort comparisons?

That doesn't matter very much, it turns out, from LaTeX's point of view, but it's probably not what you want. (If you look at the HTML, you'll see that the rule is in an h2.) I'd put the rule just in a Standard environment. If you do that, then it works as you'd want, I think. From the point of view of XHTML output, what's happening is that LyX doesn't try to put the rule itself in the TOC, but then it sees no content there at all, and that makes it unhappy. Richard

This can be easily customized, and maybe we should just make a module for it.
Do something like this in your LyX file, under Document Settings Local
Layout:
Format 31
InsetLayout Foot
HTMLStyle
now put here whatever CSS you'd like to shape the footnotes...
EndHTMLStyle
End
At some point, we'll also provide the possibility to export footnotes as
endnotes instead. There's some code for this already, in fact, but I have been
too busy to finish it.
Thank you.
I set it to:
InsetLayout Foot
HTMLStyle
span.foot_label {
vertical-align: super;
font-size: smaller;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: underline;
}
div.foot {
display: inline;
font-size: small;
font-weight: medium;
font-family: serif;
font-variant: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
div.foot_inner { font-size: small; text-indent: 0em; margin-right: 15mm;
margin-left: 15mm; margin-top: 5pt; margin-bottom: 5pt; }
EndHTMLStyle
End
And that worked for me for the XHTML and my epub and mobi files.
Good. I tried hard to make this easily customizable.
(By the way, the \newcommand junk left in my XHTML file as mentioned in
previous email caused calibre to not recognize my footnotes and
converted foot to standard, footlabel to flexurl and footinner to
standard. Once I manually removed that line from the XHTML file, then it
worked.)
I'll try to figure out why that was there.
By the way, my lyx file doesn't seem to have any way to remove the
Local Layout. Even if I clear it, press validate and click ok, then go
back to settings it is there again.

I thought I'd fixed that. Fixed now.

Another issue with lyxhtml export: 7) Index is sorted with uppercase before lowercase; that is all A-Z before any a-z. Anyway to configure it so it will consider the uppercase/lowercase the same for sort comparisons?

That doesn't matter very much, it turns out, from LaTeX's point of view, but it's probably not what you want. (If you look at the HTML, you'll see that the rule is in an h2.)

From the point of view of XHTML output, what's happening is that LyX doesn't try to put the rule itself in the TOC, but then it sees no content there at all, and that makes it unhappy. Richard

I am using LyX 2.0.0 (2011-04-29) on a Ubuntu system with lyx 2.0.0-1
packages. I export XHTML using the lyxhtml export.
My goal is to create mobi (for kindle) and epub (for nook)files. I am
using calibre 0.8.8 for conversion from the XHTML file.
Here are my issues:
1) the XHTML has:
http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML;>
1
3
but the epub shows "13" and mobi has nothing.
Does mobi handle MathML? Maybe you should try using HTML for math export
(under Document> Settings> Output).
2) Some lyx/tex sections are like "First~Second~Third" but the lyxhtml
output in my table of contents is "FirstSecondThird" (no spaces). So I
manually fixed them.
Please report this as a bug on trac and attach a simple example file.
Should be an easy fix.
3) My print cross references say "See page elsewhere". I fixed this
with:
sed -e 's,on page \(\)elsewhere,\1here,' -e 's,page \(\)elsewhere,\1here,' -e 's,pages \(\)elsewhere and \(\)elsew,\1here and \2,'
I'd be open to suggestions about what this should say. The problem,
obviously, is that XHTML has no concept of pages.
5) My footnotes work with the xhtml ... when I hover over them they
popup. But these hover style footnotes don't work in the calibre viewer.
The document shows the small underlined number but clicking or hovering
on it does nothing.
The xhtml has:
div.foot:hover div.foot_inner {
display: block;
border: 1px double black;
margin: 0em 1em;
padding: 1em;
}
This was missing from the epub stylesheet.
I think the epub and mobi don't support hovering footnotes.
This can be easily customized, and maybe we should just make a module
for it. Do something like this in your LyX file, under Document>

I don't think any devices support MathML yet.
I made that change. And the new xhtml displayed as:
1
-
3
(long vertical vinculum)
So I removed these math fractions from my lyx document and replaced with
the special symbol from the Number Forms category.
This now works for my XHTML and the EPUB and MOBI converted from it. The
XHTML now contains this character: ???
This adds one issue -- I now have some Lyx/LaTeX in my XHTML output (and
EPUB and MOBI):
\newcommand*\LyXonethird{\mbox{\raisebox{.8ex}{1}\kern-.175em\raisebox{.2ex}{/}\kern-.18em\raisebox{-.2ex}{3}}}
That line is included as content at the start of my document.
I can easily remove it to workaround this issue.

Thank you.
I set it to:
InsetLayout Foot
HTMLStyle
span.foot_label {
vertical-align: super;
font-size: smaller;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: underline;
}
div.foot {
display: inline;
font-size: small;
font-weight: medium;
font-family: serif;
font-variant: normal;
font-style: normal;
}
div.foot_inner { font-size: small; text-indent: 0em; margin-right: 15mm;
margin-left: 15mm; margin-top: 5pt; margin-bottom: 5pt; }
EndHTMLStyle
End
And that worked for me for the XHTML and my epub and mobi files.
(By the way, the \newcommand junk left in my XHTML file as mentioned in
previous email caused calibre to not recognize my footnotes and
converted foot to standard, footlabel to flexurl and footinner to
standard. Once I manually removed that line from the XHTML file, then it
worked.)
So I don't have "foot" notes, but simply a note in smaller font and
indented on next line after the superscript number.
Thanks again for the lyx hint.
By the way, my lyx file doesn't seem to have any way to remove the
"Local Layout". Even if I clear it, press validate and click ok, then go
back to settings it is there again.
