I'm using FBReader version 2.2.7 on my MB501 Android phone, running Android 2.3.7 (the latest version it will run).

I notice that it does not seem to honour "margin-top" CSS in ePubs.
I use this style:

Code:

.noindent {
display: block;
text-indent: 0;
margin-top: 2em;
}

This is intended to put approx 2 line spaces above the para starting a subsection. This displays in Calibre and Sigil, for instance, on Windows. But in FBreader it has no extra space above. It does have no indent, so the style is not being completely ignored.

Is this a bug in FBreader or my styles?

Do I actually have to use nbsp paragraphs to make space between paras reliably?
