Does page-break-inside:avoid work in azw3 files?
I've just uploaded A House to Let by various authors in ePub and mobi formats. The ebook was made in ePub format and converted to mobi+azw3 with calibre.

The book contains a chapter with a long poem. I have set up each verse in a div with page-break-inside:avoid, and that works as expected in the ePub version on a Sony T3, Kobo Touch, and iPad mini with iBooks and with Bluefire. That is, the verses stay intact and don't break.

But in the Kindle version the verses do break - page-break-inside:avoid makes no difference at all.

Am I doing something wrong? Or is calibre not converting that part of the ePub properly? Or do azw3 files not obey that markup?

Would the verses stay intact if I converted the ePub file with one of the Amazon programs?
