2. When I said there is a HTML file with a folder which contains images that are linked to this file, I meant that when you open this HTML on your PC you get a nice book with pics that are located in the images folder.
Yep. It uses a modified version of minimo. Adam has done some clever work that's makes it possible to surf the web on the iliad. Look at this thread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13089

The images in this thread are from the modified version, but it still gives you an idea of how well pages are displayed, images are embedded and links are followed. (BTW the keyboard in the image is something that you activate when you need it).

I think this type of books usually have a TOC html file and you click on chapter 1o, go there, read it and click on some sort of arrow which takes your forward to next chapter or back to a previous.
I don't have any of these books, but yes, a TOC file that uses hyperlinks will work fine.
