Wow! Lots to try there but - with a lot of help from my friends (that's you-all) I think I've got there. One (more) idiot question: I do all the editing and tidying up and standardising in an undivided epub, which gives me an undivided html to search/replace. When satisfied, I save it as [novel name]undivided.epub, around 1,000KB, and keep on doing that until it looks as-good-as-it-gets in ADE. Only then do I divide it into cover, title page, contents, prelims, chapter1 ... etc. Unsurprisingly, this also works as I want in ADE (and makes a good mobi in Calibre). So the question is: Why do I need to divide the book at all? The html links from Contents to each chapter and to some individual elements within chapters all work perfectly. Are there ebook readers that can't handle 1,000KB?
