I've noticed that my Kindle ignores "page-break-after:avoid" on subheadings, which is pretty annoying; I've also tried to persuade it to do automatic dictionary based hyphenation by putting lang="en" in the <html> tag and then applying various CSS styles to <body>: hyphens, -webkit-hyphens, -moz-hyphens and -ms-hyphens, none of which seem to work.

Can anyone tell me if there's a (probably Kindle-specific) way to do these things? And, does anyone have a list of workarounds for any other CSS things that don't work in AZW3 files?

TIA!
