Undefined property acknowledgements #230

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Perhaps I haven't understood well, but 'acknowledgements' isn't a valid 
epub:type?

epubcheck-3.0-RC-1 and epubcheck-3.0-RC-2 give me an error report called 
'Undefined property acknowledgements'

In my XHTML code: 

<body epub:type="backmatter">
<section epub:type="acknowledgements">
...
</section>
</body>

If I remove the epub:type="acknowledgements" my ePub validation is successfull.

Thank you in advance,

This one is tricky... try to use the spelling 'acknowledgments' as in 
http://idpf.org/epub/vocab/structure/

We should probably have a special hint in the output report for this. You are 
not the first and certainly not the last to stumble here. Marking as 
enhancement.

Thank you. The change of spelling solves the problem.

I was copying the term from 
http://idpf.org/accessibility/guidelines/content/nav/landmarks.php

Yes, those guidelines were written by a Canadian who sometimes mistakenly 
writes in the more familiar British variants he's used to.

I'll update the guidelines, and apologies for the confusion. If anything from 
the guidelines causes a problem, feel free to post in the IDPF forums for 
clarification, as I monitor there more regularly than here.

ERROR message reads now:

   Undefined property: acknowledgements (use notation 'acknowledgments' instead)

This note is only displayed for undefined property errors if the property value 
equals 'acknowledgements'
