Skipped pages

Greetings,

I have used calibre to convert some html files to epub. On my Sony Ereader the first pages display normally, but at a certain point the device skips to the end of the chapter. for example I was on page 17-18 and the page ended in the middle of a sentence. when I flipped the page I was at page 20 the end of the chapter.
If I type in page 18 or 19 into the navigate page, the text is in the epub file. when I use calibre's ereader program, the issue does not arise. I looked at the html file in notepad; there were no tags in the area.

So, does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this behavior?

I don't think it is really skipping from 18 to 20. I think page 18 scrolls right off of the page for quite a ways. If you have <pre> tags in your doc this could cause this.

There has to be something somewhere.

I told you what I think. You might want to seek out help in the ePub or Sigil forums.
