Previewer shows multiple blank pages between html files/chapters

I'm using sigil's "split at cursor" button to split my chapters into separate html files (I've been told this is "best practice").

When I view the file in Calibri's previewer, it shows multiple blank pages between the files/chapters (which were not there before I split them up).

However, when converted to Mobi and viewed in the kindle previewer, the blank pages are not there.

Has anyone else experienced this before? Is there a way to fix it? Should I ignore it? Will this show up in the final book?

Thanks

Sarah

There probably is some messy code behind the scenes (look in CV).
Page-Break-before is usually applied to H# type tags, and you probably have a bunch with no text (that can be deleted).
