I don't have much luck getting any of my css to work in those, either (darn it).
Hi brewt, it's ondabeach, the developer of ZuluReader. ZR does use CSS, however I haven't added support for all possible html tags.

I don't use any off the shelf components or dll's for deciphering any part of an ePUB. My code literally examines one character at a time and works out what it all means. Then actually 'paints' it all onto the screen, one character or image at a time. So I have blocks of code for extracting and parsing all the bits of an ePUB like the Meta Data, TOC, Mainfest CSS etc. That means that I have unparalleled control over how an eBook displays based on it's content.

If you email me a sample ePub with CSS that ZuluReader is unresponsive to, and a description of the discrepancy between what is expected and what you get, I will, as Jean Luc Picard would say..... "Make it so!"

Cheers.
