Words getting in the way of words. All the data displayed in the MOBI Contents Menu should tell the reader something about the structure of the book.

A typical sequence of files is as follows:


Cover.xhtml (image)
TitlePage.xhtml (image)
Table of Contents.xhtml
List of Illustrations.xhtml
Frontpiece.xhtml (image) marked in Sigil as Text and is Start Reading point.
Chapter_I.xhtml
...

Start Reading marks the point where the body of the book begins whether text or image.

Am I picking nits? No doubt. I guess I will continue my post editing atempting to get MOBI as accurate as possible. At any rate, this thread has been most fun and I have learned a great deal.

Thanks a lot, guys and ladies.
