Mikä on NCX-tiedosto?
NCX-tiedosto, lyhennetty Navigation Control -tiedostoksi XML:lle, yleensä nimeltään toc.ncx. Tämä tiedosto koostuu EPUB-tiedoston hierarkkisesta sisällysluettelosta. NCX-spesifikaatio on kehitetty digitaaliselle puhekirjalle (DTB), ja tätä tiedostomuotoa ylläpitää DAISY Consortium, eikä se ole osa EPUB-spesifikaatiota. NCX-tiedosto sisältää mime-tyypin application/x-dtbncx+xml.
NCX-spesifikaatio
The NCX file contains various kinds of XML tags. The meta tags like meta name="dtb:uid" is used to mention the ID. The meta name="d-fitb:depth" element is set equal to the depth of the navMap tag element. The navPoint elements can be nested to create a hierarchical table of contents. The content of navLabel is the text that appears in the table of contents generated by reading systems that use the .ncx. The content of navPoint element points to a content document listed in the manifest and can also include an element identifier
