Other suggestion to get animation pages transition

[lpccoder]

After my unsuccesfull try to get two page layouts to make a good animantion I suggest something new, but I'm not an expert in this field so I want to share this before start coding and know your opinion.
First we convert the page to a canvas object using html2canvas (https://github.com/niklasvh/html2canvas) and then animate the canvas object.
What do you think about this?

I think the best way to do something like this is still to use css like the following.

I would use a fixed position epub like:

var Book = ePub({ fixedLayout : true });

and write a hook to split the content up into divs and inject the pageflip css.

The main issues I see with going this route is that the pageNext() function would be broken, as the chapter would appear to a 1 page long.

Any thoughts on how to allow overriding this would be appreciated, but to just try it out you could create your own page turning function and just call book.nextPage() when your ready to switch chapters.

I have made a test to check if BookBlock could be used in an epub online reader.
I create a new index4e.htm file at (https://github.com/lpccoder/BookBlock/blob/master/index4e.html) after forking the BookBlock project. Also modified the demo4.css file to demo4e.css to avoid centering the text (https://github.com/lpccoder/BookBlock/blob/master/css/demo4e.css)
As you can see in the code I'm trying to control pagination using the jquery scrollTop function. It's a beta (good pagination requires more coding)
Why you use iframe to paginate the epub chapters?
Maybe I'm trying to paginate using divs when with iframe will be the correct way.
Where can I find the code that handles the pagination in epub.js?

Going to close this for now - still no ideal way split book content up into divs, would require writing a new renderer. Happy to see it reopened in the future.
