Another hint: add \raggedbottom in the preamble. This may help to push section titles (and other material) to the next page, since pages along the document will not be vertically justified (there may be different blank spaces at the bottom of different pages). This is the default behaviour in one-sided documents.

If this does not help, provide the minimal example and the cls file corresponding to the doc class you are using.

A final remark: LaTeX is not perfect. Sometimes it needs some help from the user, which has to add some formatting commands. Perhaps, you should wait to have an (almost) final version of your document, and then add the required commands to fix problems (such as \newpage, \pagebreak, \enlargethispage,...)

I think I've found what the problem is..I get this everytime I end up with an ending picins paragraph, ie a paragraph that has a figure wrapped around it..
If i remove the picture, it's just fine.. So I guess I 'll try another package..wrapfig perhaps..
Thanks to everyone for helping!
