That's OK we should be good. I just wanted to make sure we were talking about the same thing.

If the ToC is in its own HTML file, then while in Sigil... right click on THAT particular html file in the Book Browser (the panel on the left) and on the menu that comes up, go to "Add Semantics" and then select "Table of Contents". If you right-click again and view the "Add Semantics" menu again... "Table of Contents" should have a checkmark beside it. That's what we want.

Save the ePub and close Sigil and then use the Kindle Previewer to convert that ePub (make sure you using the exact one we edited) and see if the "Go to Table of Contents" feature works now.

EDIT: also, if you get it to work, you may want to start over with the original ePub and do things a little differently. I believe Sigil is modifying your code in ways that you may not be aware of or want it to. When you open Sigil, before you open your epub, you should turn off HTML Tidy. It's the button on the menu bar that look like a little whisk broom. The "depressed" appearance is on. Click it to turn it off. Then open your ePub. That will avoid any major alterations to your code.
