You can fix this by changing the page layout so that forward links do not link directly to back links. For example by changing :
| PreviousSect | HomeIdx | NextSect |
to instead be:
| HomeIdx | PreviousSect | NextSect |
|
It works. Thanks a lot!
In addition, I checked "Amazon Kindle Publishing Guidelines", and found out another solution so that I can keep my original layout.
I just replaced the value of "PrevousSect" href:
.../feed_0/index.html
with
.../feed_0/index.html#article_0
Here is the related information from the section 7.1 of "Amazon Kindle Publishing Guidelines":
------------------------------------
Amazon requires formatting footnotes with bi-directional hyperlinks (the text is linked to the footnote and the footnote is linked back to the text). This makes it easier for customers to return to the text after viewing the footnote. On some devices, the footnote is displayed in a pop-up window.
To avoid unintended footnote pop-ups, internal links that are not footnotes should not be formatted with bi-directional hyperlinks (A links to B and B links to A). Non-footnote links should use the format A links to B and B links to C instead. For example, links from a chapter-level table of contents to a chapter section should link back to the chapter heading.
