Paragraphs and indent

Lies, lies. That'd work for EPUB, but the LRF conversion doesn't use a full CSS parser and that doesn't work. Actually, try it as an EPUB. If that doesn't work for you, what you're going to have to do instead is put a "class" attribute on all of your <p/> tags... So CSS like:

.noindent { text-indent: 0; }

And HTML like:

<p class="noindent">This paragraph isn't indented!</p>

Sorry I don't have an easier solution for you...

This seems like a good time to figure out ePub. Since these collections I'm making are for me and my device can read ePub and LRF it doesn't really matter which one I use.

I'll let you know how this works out. But it may not be hard to select the area I want all the <p> to not be indented and to a find and replace all and replace all the <p> with <p class="noindent">...I'll try both ways and see how it goes.

Hmm, that IS pretty easy in my book

<p style= "text-indent: 0pt"> on the relevant paragraph is working, too. No CSS definition is necessary for that one, especially as it is only needed once in the text..

Would this code also work for ePub?
