I mean the Kindle plugin for Indesign DOES work and displays images relative to page size. However it doesn't give the option to break the pages at a certain paragraph style. I want this because it looks untidy if the cover page goes direct into the foreward into the chapters. Is there a way around this?
You don't use height=auto. That doesn't work.

You use height="100%" as long as you have no top/bottom margins.
