If you want a paper book style TOC in the front of your book you must create it manually as a separate page and then put href hyperlinks in all of the places like you would in standard HTML files. Not all readers support hyperlink jumping within a file and no reader supports jumping to a toc page built in this fashion. The user would have to jump back to a set page or page 1 and then move forward to the page. Any changes will have to be made manually to this page.

That is what I was afraid of. Guess I will be learning html after all. Thanks for the info, I didn't know about the TOC as a different file. That is helpfull.
