Thanks, DiapDealer

I've tried
<guide>
<reference type="other.start" title="Start here" href="Coverpage.html" />
</guide>

in the content.opf file of an ePub file that I'm working on now - the 'other.start' is because the Flightcrew ePubchecker said that 'start' is not an acceptable reference type in the OPF standards.

When I convert the book to mobi with the latest version of calibre it still doesn't open at the cover page.

What am I doing wrong?
