p {all your normal paragraph styling}

...then use special classes for...well...special paragraphs (first, scenebreak, noindent, etc). It also makes for a much cleaner file and easier to see where there is special styling when you are editing in code view.

FWIW...
I was trying to be explicit, not saying that that is exactly how it should be done.

You said that things like scene break are content and should be done in html and not css. I just wanted to clarify what you meant.
