Sorry, I missed this email when I sent the other one. A use case I'm working on today is grabbing a video when I'm online, sharing it with students for them to watch at home when I'm offline. Do I need this patch to enable this use case also?<br>

Forgot the first time, I've looked at a book from that link and it's a<br>
.zip file with some html inside, but there's no index.html file. There<br>
is a start.html file (which I assume is the entry point), but as it is<br>
right now, the user would have to click start.html after the .zip file<br>
is loaded. I could add 'start.html' to the list of entry points to<br>
look for if it's an important enough use case.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes please add support for start.html. There a millions of books available on the internet, but I think this is one of the few resources that provides books that would be useful to a dyslectic second grader who reads below grade level. And Sugar is the only platform who believes that that user is important use case for eBooks. ;)</div>
