Okay this makes more sense. I think what happens is if you have ^l instead of ^p the heading 2 doesn't work quite right.

Also, do you know that if you don't like the way the "Heading 2" style looks you'll get much neater HTML if you modify the style itself, once, than you'll get if you start manually adding styling (font face, size, centre etc) to each chapter heading individually. The former adds the style detail once to the h2 CSS between the <style>...</style> tags. The latter adds it to every <h2> element in the HTML body.
Yes I did know about this but for the most part I've been happy with using the css override in Calibre to apply my Heading 2 and Heading 3 styles. Mostly it's just centered and bold.
