Just to note, the entire approach to the Dhammapada is now changed, and this is live on our staging site. We now treat the entire text as one page, which means we can create super-simple and obvious URLs to any verse: /dhp#234 means "Dhammapada verse 234." This is now unified between the Pali and English as well.

Look like the whole server is down, not just that page. We've been experiencing occasional outages on the server side recently, hopefully we can get this fixed ASAP.
Hi Thomas,
Thanks for letting us know. I took a lot of care to make sure that the epub file was clean and valid, but it seems there are still some issues. My guess is that this has to do with some final post-processing that was done by Ven Nandiya: I'll pass this on to him and see if we can fix it. Typically, of course, it's hard to get ebooks to display consistently across devices, but the issues you describe don't sound like the usual incompatibility issues.

Okay, well, let us know it it recurs. Most likely I would imagine an issue with the browser cache, or some transient bug in our code.
I also have no problems with the search.
Hi Dan,
Sorry about the slow response. I think this bug has been fixed in the new site, which you can see at : http://staging.suttacentral.net/pi/dhp383-423
In fact our handling of the entire Khuddaka has not been very good up till now. Our next release will include the entire Pali text for the Khuddaka, including the late books like Milinda, as well as the Vinaya and Abhidhamma. We are working hard to make this bug free, but there's still lots to do! If you'd like to browse the staging site and let us know of any further bugs that would be great.

Glad you like it. It takes a lot of work to keep things "tidy" on a web page; and it's very easy to clutter things up.
Hi Dan,
Thanks for the thanks!
To follow up on some of the points discussed above, we are in talks for developing an Android app (actually one has been made, but it's not very good yet...). And we are almost ready to release our updated version, including extensive Vinaya coverage. Stay tuned...

Hi Ludo,
Thanks! But I'm not sure that it's necessary: it will be published by both Oxford and the BPS, so we should be getting hard copies soon.
