Thanks. I may have accidentally come across a solution. I have yet to check it on an ereader, but it displays correctly (except for an extra page break after an image)
here's what I did:
css
Code:
p {
font-family:"Book Antiqua";
src: url("../Fonts/BookAntiqua.TTF") format("truetype");
font-size:1.2em;
text-indent:1.2em;
margin-top:0px;
margin-bottom:0px;
text-align:justify;
}
p.ni {
text-indent:0em;
}
div.inline {
height:99%;
width:100%;
page-break-inside:avoid;
text-align:center;
}
div.inline
img {
display:inline-block;
height:auto;
max-height:100%;
width:auto;
max-width:100%;
margin:0 0;
}
html
Code:
<body>
<p>Shoie, a thoughtful look on his face, turned the knob and walked into Alvin's bedroom. At least he <i>started</i> in. The act of opening the door triggered Alvin's Foolproof Burglar Alarm. A boxing glove packed with stones, mounted on a short section of two-by-four, came whipping through the air. It was powered by a screen-door spring. At the last moment Shoie suddenly remembered the Burglar Alarm — he'd been caught by it countless times before - and tried to duck. He was too late. The boxing glove struck him smack on the nose, and he went reeling back into Alvin's arms, while a loud bell clanged and the lights in the room flashed on and off.</p>
<div class="inline">
<img alt="Image_02" src="../Images/Image_02.png"/>
</div>
<p>Daphne put her hand to her mouth and giggled. Her golden pigtails shook. "Shoie, I swear you'll <i>never</i> remember that dumb boxing glove that Alvin put up as a burglar alarm. I'll bet you've been hit by that thing fifty zillion times. Tomorrow you'll come up here and walk right into it again."</p>
</body>

any ways of making the code more efficient wouuld be handy.
