I can also recommend the (x)HTML/CSS tutorial from one of our forum members Pablo. That will help you to get the basics in a simple and straightforward way.
Tox:

A lot of those little bits weren't wrong when she published it. Oddly enough, for those of us who've been around, the ePUB world has changed a LOT since she published it. (Remember how, when it came out, you couldn't use fonts in iBooks? Yeeesh!) ;-) It's a very good primer, I think, for someone who needs guidance on the basics. I suppose it's the best I've found, or I wouldn't be giving it to our new people. We have our own internal clips, stylesheets, etc., but those tend to assume that someone knows the basics of ebooks and the making thereof, so I for one am glad to have Liz's very hand materials around. And it's priced very affordably, thank goodness.
