Book displaying 'previous', but not 'next' below the text.

I am puzzled by this. I have checked the content and all pages are children of a single parent. They all show up in the block containing the menu.

When I click on each item in the menu, it will show the previous item, but nothing is being returned for the "next" item.

It is most confusing. My new site under development was working fine earlier today, but now with more content - and some rearranging - the 'next' links are gone.

Drupal generates the 'next' code but with no content:

<div class="next">&nbsp;</div>

Yes, that is the code generated for me as well.

I've been trying various experiments with parents and children and children of children.... There seems to be a pattern. Try creating a sample book and see if this describes the beahavior correctly:

Where Drupal appears to be making mistakes with the "next" link is in any situation where the following page is on the same level as the current page.

If the following page on the current level has no child pages then Drupal will not present a "next" link to it. Drupal seems to be looking for either a page with children, or a higher level page in order to present a "next" link. If there are none, then no link is presented.

I am getting the same thing. This has GOT to be a bug. I have searched for a posting of this, but I can't find anything.

I'm getting this on 4.7-beta6. It's very annoying indeed and I can't figure out how to correct it.
