I have just found your tutorials about html, css etc and find them very
useful, as I am trying to learn more about these topics rather than just
use a "wysiwyg" web page creator. I have tried to print them with
Prince, but I get errors, as follows:
HTML Tutorial
andrew@[Linux brand]:~$ prince --no-embed-fonts

Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for your help

Andrew,

This is a known bug in Prince - it thinks an input's NAME and ID attributes
are both ID attributes. You can safely ignore this warning.
> error: Unexpected end tag : ul
That's a mistake on my part. Fixed.
> error: htmlParseEntityRef: no name
Prince does not like unambiguous ampersands, even though they are allowed,
per spec. I have replaced all of them with entities to be nice to Prince.

Many thanks for such a prompt reply. All four tutorials are now residing on
my PC as pdf files. In fact, the JS tutorial may well have worked anyway -
I didn't realise it was so large! Caused my poor old Linux ([brand])
box to virtually grind to a halt for half an hour or so, but it got there in
the end.
Thanks again.
Andrew
