Post Initials in Sigil

Hi people,

Thank you very much for accepting me.

I am quite a newbie in creating ePubs in Sigil.

A new big issue came from out of nowhere by controlling the output...

I use big initials not only at the beginning of a chapter, but also in the middle of a chapter. Like a sub-chapter or so.

I would like to treat them like a picture, so I close them by tags <div> and <span> and I am trying my best with the CSS styles.

Everything works good till a page-break comes. The surrounding text is behaving in an uncontrollable way, it is either o.k., or the next <p> Is coming in front of a span and div with initial , or the initial stays on the previous page and the text goes to the next one.

What I really want is the initial to stay always in front of the following paragraphs and to be sailed around by the text like a picture. But if the initial together with the surrounding paragraph doesn’t fit to the previous page, than I won’t them both to be pushed to the next page, initial always to be the first and the following paragraphs next to the initial, behind and beneath of corse, not vice versa...

Any idea how to proceed?

thank you very much in advance
