But encoding HTML's and applying personally encoded HTML's (or other people's codes) is still beyond me.
Open the epub in Sigil. There's one xhtml file, one Style file. Look at them on Code View. They simply contain the code I posted.

The xhtml has a header - which Sigil creates for you. Then there's the link to the stylesheet. The Body section is very simple - a chapter header enclosed in <h1></h1> tags, some paragraphs enclosed in <p></p> tags. The stylesheet defines the appearance of a basic paragraph - stuff inside <p></p>. There's also a definition for a <p> following a <h1> - the no-indent style for a first paragraph. And a style <p1> for a paragraph with space above.
