    I’m working on a fixed-layout ePUB for a client. The ePUB reader they are using requires applying the epub:type attribute to various sections of the document. If for example, I were to apply this attribute to the inline table of contents, would I apply it to a single element on the page or would I select all of the elements on the page and apply it?

    Hey Christopher,

    Not sure if you figure this out or not. Epub:type attributes can be tricky and I think it all depends on what attribute you are adding. Some have different roles and are used on different elements.

    If its something like the “toc” attribute, you would add it to the <nav> tag around your table of contents and nothing else, but if you were, say, doing popup footnotes, you would add the “noteref” attribute to the inline tags.
