Page breaks -- best practices?

[GrannyGrump]

@jbacelar --- good catch! I totally missed that idea. (Hope it works in iBooks and stuff for Psymon)

Oh, these are both great solutions! I only tried the first one (GrannyGrump's) and that was enough -- I'm sure yours works, too, jbacelar, but I think I'll go with the ol' Granny's instead, as that one I can use anywhere, any time, in any book, regardless of whether I have a header image or not, not to mention that it works without a header image at all, and I can also just make a quick'n'easy "clip" in Sigil that I can insert easily whenever I need it.

Oh, and I did a search & replace and changed all 200+ instances of page breaks in my books, and tested it out in ADE (on my PC) and in iBooks on my iPad, and it works perfectly in both!

Thanks to both of you for your efforts! This is REALLY great, to have this resolved! Yippee!!! Hopefully this thread will be helpful for others, too!

Thank you -- if you liked that, you should see it now! I've been working on it for months now -- it's still not finished, though.

But thanks, that was nice to get a little compliment, even on that rather preliminary sample that I'd loaded up here way-back-when.

I just shared it just now in the EPUB uploads section here (hope I submitted it correctly -- first time I ever shared any of my books here!), if you'd like to take a look at the completed work.

Thanks mate, I certainly will!
