Its very hard to say from this point but you might want to debug or provide with some more details. I try to get selected region at this(https://github.com/logiclord/epubReader/blob/master/js/epubReader.js#L435) point using infusion API.

I am also facing same issue?? Can you able to provide proper solution??

[logiclord]

Can you provide some more details ? What part worked and where it failed ?

I am trying to "Add bookmark" for selected text from "Bookmarks" tab. It is showing following message : "Please make a selection for bookmark". The same problem for "Add note" also.

[logiclord]

Just to clarify "selected" means selected via ePub reader selection tool not cursor selected text. Can you confirm which dom element is present at https://github.com/logiclord/epubReader/blob/master/js/epubReader.js#L390

I am trying to "Add bookmark" for selected text from "Bookmarks" tab. It is showing following message : "Please make a selection for bookmark". The same problem for "Add note" also. not able to understand "selected via ePub reader selection tool" i'm not seeing anything like that.

Hi Suresh,

I think you have not selected an element. In this reader a selected element means a selected dom object. Only a given level object can be selected so you need to select that element using control I have provided in the reader. I have used Selectable Property (http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/docs/Tutorial+-+Keyboard+Accessibility+Plugin#Tutorial-KeyboardAccessibilityPlugin-Selectable) at https://github.com/logiclord/epubReader/blob/master/js/epubReader.js#L367 which allows you to navigate and select a part of current page.This is by design as we didn't had any standard way to support selection across touch, keyboard and mouse.

Thanks Gaurav for the quick reply, I tried lot but not getting it correctly. When I am selecting any text and trying to book mark it throws exception. The below piece of code 'infusionAll.js 11771', I think I am facing problem. fluid.getScopedData = function(target, key) { var data = $(target).data(NAMESPACE_KEY); return data ? data[key] : undefined; }; This function returns undefined when I click on Bookmark button after selecting text. Let me know, if I am missing some thing here.

[logiclord]

Can you share a screenshot of how are you trying to select ?

[sureshkardam]

one is for selection and another one is after clicking the bookmark button by mouse

Gaurav Sir, anything else you need from my side

[sureshkardam]

Dear Sir, Waiting for your response..

[logiclord]

Issue with your scenario is that you have not selected anything. Selection in this epub reader is different from selection made by dragging mouse cursor. You need to use selection mechanism of the reader. You need to activate the selection by hitting activation (space bar by default) then you will be able to selection using arrow keys.

I am not a sir, I am just Gaurav :)

Hello Gaurav ! this is Beyond this scope, but need your help when we open epub files which are created using pdf to epub converter(like Anicesoft EPUB Converter), it doesn't work with our framework. may be because of missing toc.ncx file. but all of your epubs files open well in the framework. what you used to make the epub file, if we are following the same for opening , we should follow the creation of files also. please let us know the procedure how you did that .

Regards suresh
