A House stylesheet may have a dozen styles that are currently the same. The Theory is, 'I can change the look of any page type later.' |
And different books can have different CSS. Even eBook in the same series can have different CSS.
Using that CSS you found here won't work. You will not be able to match the classes in the CSS of the eBooks with the classes in that CSS. As is said above, you have to look at the CSS code for what's going on in the HTML and then fix it to do what you want if it's not doing what you want.
I install my small set of CSS classes and they work for me. but then, I know what I'm doing to be able to use some of them. I don't always use all of them and the ones that don't get used to get erased when I am done. My CSS is not a put in place and it's fixed. They are a fix for some things depending on what's in the CSS of the eBook. But I have to change some classes to use mine instead. It's not a drop in and done.
