When I ran a check on my epub in Calibri I get a message saying one of the files in the spine is "non-linear" and it asks if it should fix it. This particular file is giving me grief -- I can't get the page content to appear in the flow properly. It should be the second-to-last page of the book but keeps showing up last, even when the TOC has it second-to-last. I always select "fix what it can" and it does and then says there's no problems but the page still remains in the wrong place. What does the "non-linear in the spine" mean? (It says some readers won't read it or will read it in the wrong place -- but why??? It's an html file with no syntax errors.)

Thanks for any help!
It means there is a file that is not part of the Flow.
