Force a chapter to always start on a right page?

pbreslin
For duplex page layouts, is there any way to force the first page of a chapter to always start on a right page? I tried setting page-break-before to "right" but it doesn't seem to be supported. Is there another way to do this?

Thank you,

Prince 5.0 supports left/right page break for duplex printing.
Here is a short file I just tried and it seemed to work:

<html>
<head>
<style>
div { page-break-before: right }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>Chapter 1</div>
<div>Chapter 2</div>
<div>Chapter 3</div>
</body>
</html>

Perhaps you were trying it with Prince 4.0? Also, if the page break properties were specified within @page rules, they would not be applied.
