This seems to be working for centering text on a page.

Code:
<table width="100%" height="100%">
<tr>
<td style="verticalAlign:middle">
<p class="Section_Name"><a id="TOC1_1"></a>Harold's Story</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

@m610
They used Tables because there was not a better way to position things.

What we have now is way more flexible and re-scalable.

Now we only need the apps to allow the user preference to scale the Publishers style rather than either OURS or Theirs

One down, three to go, and this book, my first ebook, will be done.
  1. Image sizes (over 50%)
  2. Book open to cover (I still need to try a few things)
  3. Fonts

If you do nor override the Start, Devices open the first file in the book. For EPUB2, that is the cover.
If you want to use the Editor , 2 steps
you add the Image file, right-click the filename: mark as cover.
You create a 'cover page' , place the image and any text. Then right-click that filename; mark as cover

Both items must be marked.

Why not Use Calibre Metadata Editor?
Simply fill out the form, drop the prepared cover (Generate Cover tool). save (OK)

Then Polish this into your book (that must be in the Library)
Presto. A cover (titlepage.xhtml and Jacket.xhtml )

One thing. Don't use a space in any of the filenames. If you want a space use an underscore instead.
