I'm working on a "personal use" epub I'm making from a scanned book, and mostly have it looking like I want. I'm no expert with CSS, but it looks OK in ADE and works on my Nook.

However, after certain pages, there is a single extra blank page following and I don't know why! It's happening after the preface page, the titlepage, the copyright page, the dedication page and the contents page. It happens on my Nook and also in ADE.

It does NOT happen with any of the chapters. It does not happen after the cover page.

Is there some code I am missing to end a single page item properly so this does not happen? Each of these pages (preface, titlepage, dedication, content) is a separate xhtml file, so I thought it would behave like the chapters and just go straight from one page to the next, without blanks in between.

I just find it horribly annoying to see and have to turn past the blank pages, particularly after the dedication page, which consists of three words near the top of the page! Any idea how to stop this behavior and get rid of the extra blank page?

If it's a code thing, examples would help. I'm not super techy... 50+ year old housewife. CSS is like a whole 'nother planet, but I'm trying to learn, at least in a basic way. Thanks for any help or ideas!

P.S. Oh, it's late and maybe this would've been better in the epub forum? My bad... should not post when tired.
