Easy way to ignore some pages from CHM

Hi,

I have some CHM books that I'd like to convert to Mobi format. Every of the book has at the beginning main info page, table of contents, etc pages which I'd like to ignore as TOC will be generated on the fly. I also noticed that the first page is the "links" page which comes directly from chm's hhc file.

How to avoid these pages in the final Mobi file? I tried search&replace feature but it didn't work. I know that I can debug and fix the files manualy but looking for a faster way.

Manually is the only way. You're best bet is to convert to EPUB then use Sigil to remove the pages you don't want. Then convert the modified EPUB to MOBI.
