Best not to use CSS, because Mobi doesn't support it - all that's happening with CSS is that the Mobi creation tool is trying (more or less successfully) to convert it to HTML tag attributes, so it's better to just code the attributes directly.
Do you know, I've spent the last six months pulling out my hair (what's left of it) over this. Thanks!

Now if only the .mobi format could be brought into the 21st century, and recognize style sheets.
