Please reinstall Sigil 1.4.0 just temporarily, and then provide us with an exact sequence of steps to recreate the issue. The more detail the better. Without this nothing will ever be fixed.

Thank you. I have installed Sigil 1.4 again for testing.
Your mention of the DOCTYPE made me realise how silly I have been. I assumed that Sigil would create the same doctype details for the new page as the rest of the book... Duh. Now I have this info instilled into my brain it works perfectly. (I now copy and paste the doctype from one of the original pages to the new page) and problem solved.
Regarding the extraneous amp;(s) This is still occurring. I have checked with Calibre's opf file and there are no amp;(s) on it. They only seem to appear once the file is opened and saved in Sigil. I cannot send a copy of this opf file for copyright reasons. In the meantime, because these amp;(s) only appear after saving with Sigil, I can remove them in Calibre when converting.
I have changed my preferences in Sigil 1.4 so that "mend not well formed" is not selected for "open and save" and "Validation" is set at CSS 2.1. So that stopped the pop-up window appearing and I will correct any errors myself using Flight Crew and/or Sigil's Well-Formed ePub check.
