Making epubs for Stanza on Ipod Touch

So I'm trying to convert a few rtf files into ePub format using Calibre and I'm having some trouble. Namely that with the created files when I try and look at them using Stanza on the iPod Touch I can only see the first page of each chapter, otherwise it is all blank. All the text certainly is there when I view the file using Stanza for Windows.

And I don't really know why this is happening. I've tried both the default and the Sony Reader profiles.

I have no problem with converting such files. The cover image tends to not show up and ones has to page past that, but all the text shows up fine. I have my system set for the Sony Reader profile as I also have a Sony PRS-505.

It's because stanza and iBooks apparently can't handle position:relative in the CSS
