Also, you can similarily avoid the width="1em" attribute by replacing it by the inline style="text-indent:1em".

Check if <br style="margin-top:1em"> or <div style="margin-top:1em">&nbsp;</div> work for you. Similarily, you can use <p style="text-indent:1em"> ... </p> to have that paragraph indent. BTW, you can combine these like <p style="text-indent:1em; margin-top:1em"> ... </p> to make the paragraph have an indent and have a blank line paragraph separation above it.

Heck, I just place that in the <body> tag ONCE for the entire ebook i.e. <body style="text-indent:1em; margin-top:1em">. I also, and this is my preference only, place a minimal left/right margin as well as fully justify text using <body style="text-indent:1em; margin-top:1em; margin-left:2px; margin-right:2px; text-align:justify">!!!

Nothing like sticking to standard HTML code when converting to multiple ebook formats...
