Problem

  • Some EPUBs (e.g. TheEconomist.2026.01.10) store chapters as text/html, which ebooklib doesn’t classify as ITEM_DOCUMENT. The parser ends up with a spine containing only cover.xhtml/nav.xhtml, so TOC clicks always land on /read/.../0#.

Fix

  • Extend document detection in reader3.py to treat text/html and .html/.xhtml/.htm files as content documents.
  • This allows TOC entries to map to real chapters and produces a complete spine.
