This continues the issue I raised on 12-13-10, to whose participants I'm also responding to individually at this time.
Anyone know how to program the "Beginning" selection of the (pull-down) "Go To" menu? Nowhere in the
filename.opf or toc.html or toc.ncx files does the reserved word "Beginning" occur. It randomly begins my book on the "Acknowledgements" page, even though in the .opf file I have a guide item <reference type="start" title="Welcome" href="
filename.html#start"> and in the
filename.html for the book content I have the anchor <a name="start"/>; both in response to suggestions made in this forum on 12-13-10. The "Go To" menu does include the "Welcome" item linked to the intended "start" position, but this is a redundant option, considering that the TOC enables the user to start at the "start" location. Somehow I need to program the "Beginning" selection to start at the "start" position, and nothing in either the Kindle or Mobipocket userguides explains how.
