For what it's worth, in the latest version of "Amazon Kindle Publishing Guidelines", on page 24 it states:

Formatting Tips

1. Anchors must be added before formatting tags
  • Correct: <a name=”Chapter1”/><h1>Chapter 1</h1>
  • Incorrect: <h1><a name=”Chapter1”/>Chapter 1</h1>

Those are the guidelines that I follow when I create my .mobi files, yet I have the same problem that Kratos reports. Chapter 1 is fine when I navigate there using the 5-way (or TOC) and go back and then forward, but on the other chapters the heading is one or two lines lower when I do that. When I navigate the same way to the chapter heading and go forward and then back, all chapter headings are fine. This does not happen in Kindle Previewer -- only on my K3.

If I move to each chapter heading using the page-forward button (on the side of the Kindle) and then go back/forward at a chapter heading, all is fine. This makes me wonder if the problem may be in the NCX file rather than the HTML.

Any thoughts?
