Trouble generating a TOC

foghat · 05-07-2010, 04:53 PM

Hi all,

I have drm freed a book of mine - I have an html file which I am telling Calibre to convert to ebup. Problem is a TOC does not generate.

Below is a sample of the html:
--------------------------------------
<p>Â*</p>
<p class="i4"><span id="ch26-page_7"> </span> <span id="ch26-ch02"> </span> </p>
<h1 title="Barbie"/>

<div class="center"><span class="big"><b>BARBIE<br/>
</b></span></div>
<p>Â*</p>
<p class="i4"><span id="ch26-page_8"> </span> <span id="ch26-page_9"> </span> </p>

<div class="center">1<br/>
</div>
------------------------------------------

The chapter name in this case is Barbie and as you can see there are h1 tags, but no TOC gets generated.

I've tried creating a Level 1 XPath expression of "//h:h1", but that is not working.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

It needs to be a non empty tag

Got it. Works once I clean it up.

Thanks.
