 Reported by Cerlyn in http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10495

 'In "A Tale of Two Cities" as well as the "The Adventures of Huckleberry
 Finn" epub books from Project Gutenberg, the drop-down menu in the top of
 the "Read" menu area does not jump to a selection point.

 In the "Pandora's Legions" epub book from the Baen Free Library this
 works.

 Someone needs to figure out who is at fault or if the epub spec is vague.

 Tested in 10.1.3 os355. Books tested selected more or less at random.'

  "A Tale of Two Cities" can be downloaded from
 http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/98

 The error happen, because the links in this books point to internal url in
 a document, with the form
 98/@public at vhost@g at gutenberg@html at files@98 at 98-h@98-h-2.htm.html#pgepubid00009
