I just tried <div class="TitlePage"> </div>, and it didn't work. I have HTML files that I drag-and-drop into Calibre (currently version 0.8.11), and when converting to MOBI for Kindle 3, the "Go To Beginning" still only goes to the first entry (Chapter 1) in the TOC. So this isn't the magic HTML that I need.

There used to be information that <a name="start"/> was the way to go, but it also doesn't work.

Does anyone know the magic HTML code which will indicate the beginning in a MOBI format? Or is this a bug in Calibre, which, during the conversion from HTML (ZIP) to MOBI, the proper "start" tag is not getting included?

Thanks!
