Is there a sample somewhere of proper XML for the cover?

I'm not sure if you're asking for instructions on the quick way or the long term way.
If it's the quick way, add the image, then split the file just like the tutorial says. Then go into the cover file in Sigil, look to see if it 'stole' the header file, and if so, copy and paste it back to the file you split the cover from.
Ultimately, your code will look something like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>The Name of my Book</title>
<link href="../Styles/template.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body style="">
<div id="the-name-of-my-book">
<div class="story">
<p class="generated-style"><img alt="" src="../Images/cover.jpg" /></p>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
However, if you simply follow the tutorial, as previously mentioned, you'll likely have an extra header line in the body that you need to cut and paste into the file you split from.
