[sword-devel] How to deal with invalid markup?

[David Haslam]

Hi Tobias,

OSIS Modules submitted for release by CrossWire should always be validated prior to submission. They would be rejected if the XML cannot be validated to one of the OSIS schemas that SWORD supports. All the more so if the input file fails to pass an XML syntax check.

CrossWire has no control over the preparation of modules for the associated repositories such as eBible.org

Such errors should be reported to the repository owner, in this case Kahunapule Michael Paul Johnson.
He is a member of this mailing list.

Best regards,

David
