Further update. I just remembered that I may have left out
something important in the file I uploaded that was included in the
original: the coding for a graphic in a frame. If so, I will correct
that mistake in the morning. (My bed time) I have not yet fully
addressed the <ol> or <ul> tags especially when there are multiple list
tags such as:
<ol class="OOoNum123>
<li>
<ol class="OOoNumabc>
<li>
<p class="P-OOoNum"> something. </p>
</li>
</ol>
<li>
</ol>
This produces:
1 a something. (This is not what we want.)
a something. This is what we would get if the first <ol>
and <li> tags had not been added by Calibre.
