First of all, sorry if I used the wrong terms or badly explained my issue. English is (obviously  ) not my first language but there are very little ressources and knowledgeable people on the subject in my first language.
So, back on the subject, Jellby explained better than me what I'm trying to do:
The reason I wanna do this is simply because a paper version of this book exists and its TOC is separated in three parts, each one listings all the chapters/pages of a certain type while they're not actually grouped in the actual book. That's a pretty common thing for art or cooking books' TOCs here.
The reason I really want to use a TOC.ncx is simply because I want the book to be fully epub 2 compatible for the older devices.
Unless I find a better solution, it seems to best thing to do would be to make an xhtml TOC directely included in the book and to make the TOC.ncx section entries point to it. It's not ideal but at least, it'll work on every device and won't make any entry points to a part of the book that doesn't make sense.
Thank you again |
Uh....no. You
cannot point the NCX entries to your TOC. The NCX entries are the device's internal TOC; it tells the device where, for example, "Chapter 4" is, in the zipped container that makes up your ePUB.
Don't screw with the NCX. If you want to make an HTML TOC and point those wherever the hell you want, great, but the NCX should be in the proper, correct order or your book will not work correctly.
