Here's an interesting article in which a guy explains how he formatted an entire book using only CSS. It's not something I had thought of before.
It's part of what inspired me to go ahead and create BBCode tags to create a novel format, inside our forum posts.

The guy goes through his whole process, including the more complex steps of having the CSS take care of the page numbers and page breaks. CSS being made for HTML, you'll understand that it's not intended to deal with actual pages, page numbers, and page headers. It was a pretty interesting read.
