Did you properly LINK the stylesheet to your html pages?

And in books that have mostly short paragraphs though, it would be a godsend.
This is exactly what "p {page-break-inside:avoid}" is supposed to do, as BR posted. Unfortunately not all devices or reading apps do what they are supposed to do...either the app/device sucks, or the IDPF standard is not written clearly enough.
