Did you check first that the html is valid by viewing the source
(view, page source or similar in browser) and copying the complete
text and pasting into w3c html validator (google will find it)?
I had planned on that, but due to time constraints I never got
around to
it. Being so expensive, Prince pretty much had to work without a hitch
if I was going to spend any time trying to make it work.
As some others have pointed out, you simply need to provide Prince
with valid XHTML. It even provides you with a nice syntax error to
trace down where YOUR code is wrong. You wouldn't expect Ruby to let
you get away with "ruts 'Hello World'" instead of "puts 'Hello
World'". We've use Prince in a project that created the most complex
documents you can ever imagine, using almost everything Prince has to
offer, including plenty of SVG images with dynamic data in them. We're
speaking of hundreds of pages too. It works without a hitch and
support from the developer is simply amazing. Yes, it's expensive, but
it's worth every cent if you plan on generating plenty of PDF
documents with complex layouts.
