I would like to see unnecessary divs removed. Is there a purpose for them? They make styling with CSS more difficult. For example, indenting the first line of paragraphs except for the first paragraph of a chapter and a paragraph right after a heading would be much easier without the divs in between them in the HTML.

I am also in favour of improving the HTML code in general. Thanks all of you for your efforts.

Thanks
John
