Me thinks the poster is slitting the files before importing them into Sigil
Nope. I am cutting and pasting text into a single page in Sigil. Then I search through for "Chapter ..." or "Part ..." and I am using the "Insert Chapter Break" menu item above these lines to break the large page in to smaller chapters.

The new pages do not seem to include the same stylesheet reference as the original page. (I will try to post a specific example this weekend).

The blank lines between paragraphs caused Sigil to create empty paragraph tags. I solved this by writing a macro to remove all blank lines but put <p> and </p> tags at the beginning and end of each paragraph. The only trick is I now have to open the Code View and find the correct spot to paste in the tagged text. It's a little crude but it works.
