It works for me too!

Also, while working on your solution I found that
if I use 
    g_signal_connect_after(...switch_page...)
instead of
    g_signal_connect(...switch_page...)
then in the callback for switch_page I can do:

on_nb1_main_options_switch_page (GtkNotebook     *notebook,
                                 GtkNotebookPage *page,
                                 guint            page_num,
                                 gpointer         user_data)
{
    switch (page_num) {
        case 0:
            break;
        case 1:
            break;
            ...
    }
}


where page_num is the correct ascending ordered page 
number I want!


For example, if my notebook looks like this:
    +---+---+---+---+--------------------------
    | A | B | C | D | ....
    +---+---+---+---+--------------------------

then page_num will be 0 for A, 1 for B, 2 for C and so on...!


Thank you so much.
