Is there a viewer or plugin of any kind that would allow an .epub document to be viewable on a web page? A Google search turned up tons of installable epub viewing desktop software but I couldn’t seem to find anything for embedding this format on a web page. Perhaps you folks have some insight into this?

    epub files are just HTML/XML and CSS, so you could easily open the epub container (it’s a zip), then parse the XML inside using a language like PHP.

    It shouldn’t be too difficult to do that.

    The format looks like:

    --ZIP Container--
    mimetype
    META-INF/
      container.xml
    OPS/
      book.opf
      chapter1.xhtml
      ch1-pic.png
      css/
        style.css
        myfont.otf
    

    Here’s an example of the content you might find in chapter1:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
      <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8" />
        <title>Pride and Prejudice</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css" type="text/css" />
      </head>
      <body>
        ...
      </body>
    </html>
