So in my kindle version I have a table of contents between the title page and the first chapter.
Not sure if it's the right way to do it, since there is also the table of contents file, but the example of how to prepare the html for KindleGen I found online did it that way.

For my chapters, I use:
<mbp: pagebreak />
<a name="chapter1"></a>
<h1 class='chapterhead'>Chapter 1</h1><br />

Which works good for the Kindle version, but when I make the epub in calibre it splits the chapters on the h1 tag, meaning that the TOC thinks that the chapter begins at the end of the previous page.

Is there a better way to do this?

Is there an epub publisher that i should be using instead of Calibre? Something that plays better with Apple?
