create a useable TOC when book uses images for chapter headings
so I have a book structured like this - where image000r says Chapter 1...
each chapter starts with a h1 tagged image but no text:


<h1 class="calibre10" id="calibre_pb_12"> <a id="_Toc511571660"><img src="../Images/00005.jpeg" alt="" class="calibre11"/></a> </h1>


the next chapter will use images/0006 for chapter 2 etc

if i ask sigil to create a TOC all entries are blank as there is no text for it to use

can anyone suggest a slick tweak so that I can have 1, 2 ,3 ... or chapter 1, chapter 2... etc in a TOC

i could "find" the "5" with regex but I don't know how to do subtraction within regex, so that it can be changed into a 1 when i use replace
