Hi, thanks for reporting this.  

The HNV/WEB problems seem to occur on the first or last chapters of bible books 
and are possibly related to tag formatting issues.  I might be able to do 
something for the next release - I have an idea that might work.

Gill is a difficult problem caused simply by the large size of Gill and small 
memory on mobile phones.  I noticed this before release and had to decide 
whether to remove Gill or accept the error.  You will find you see this error 
on large books of the bible but not small books because Gill is cached at the 
book level.  I do have plans to optimize memory use in the future but I still 
don't know if that will allow all of Gill to be displayed.  I have also just 
submitted a request for Gill to be changed to have a block type of chapter 
instead of book which should also relieve the memory issue.

Yes, the fix or WEB/HNV will be included in 0.3.1 which I am planning for about 
a weeks time.  There were one or 2 small issues in 0.3.0 that I need to do a 
patch release for.

I will update this issue with any response to the request I made to convert 
Gill to chapter blocks instead of book blocks.

Hi, I have fixed the problem and the screen now displays what looks like 
Persian but I apologise for not being able to read Persian to verify it.

I plan to do a release with a few bug fixes and a new cross-reference links 
feature within a week.

I need to do a generic fix for this so that any oddly formatted documents that 
throw a parser error are automatically switched to the fault tolerant parser 
but for now I just maintain a growing list of special documents in the code.

If you would like to see a screen-print to verify it is correct you can e-mail 
me at help.andbible@gmail.com.

Best regards
Martin
