About page-break

page-break-after
page-break-before
page-break-inside

How well are they supported in epub3 and 2 now? I have used them in some case but they tend to fail.

The only certain way I know to let content start in a new page is creating a new xhtml file. But some web novel can have 1000 chapters, it's tedious to have 1000 xhtml files.

So how well are they work exactly now? How can I guarantee a page break?

Those tags are deprecate:

Should use:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/...s/break-inside

Though the Libra2 does not recognise the newer tag and still prefers the deprecated tag.

Use both tags in your CSS. Something like this...
.nopagebreak {
break-inside: avoid;
page-break-inside: avoid;
}

Instead of doing a page break before or after, just split the HTML where you want the page break. That way the page break will 100% work.

The tutorial I see is so old...
I'm going to try break before and after later. Thank you.

Sadly, break-before: always; and break-before: page; does absolute nothing.
At least in Sigil's readium plugin.
Does this have something to do with the plugin? Or it will happen in other readers out there?

And more test, yes, lot's of reader software does not work. Some do though.
Why it is so hard to put such basic and simple function to work?
