Does Digital Edition support fallback for epub?

Hi,

I am playing around with epub format those days.

I tried to embed non-standard resource files in the package and use fallback to display the alternative of those files. But seems like it didn't work.

I did a litter search, and found someone had similar problem:

No body answered the post.

Is there anyone knowing if the fallback is supported by current Digital Edition (1.5)?

Thanks,
sfan

    sfan,

    It depends on how you do it.

    Fallbacks through XHTML object tag should be working correctly (i.e. Digital Editions should display the content inside the object tag, if the resource type is not supported).

    Chapter-level fallbacks specified in OPF file are not yet supported.
