You need to create some numeration with a search using a regex-function, put it in an hidden text, as this, for exemple:

<p class="PAGE-BREAK">*<span style="display:none"> Chapter 2</span></p>
[...]
<p class="CN" id="toc_2">*<span style="display:none"> Cn 6</span></p>

or better, put your "display:none" in a class in the CSS and
<p class="PAGE-BREAK">*<span class="toc_text"> Chapter 2</span></p>
[...]
<p class="CN" id="toc_2">*<span class="toc_text"> Cn 6</span></p>

The regex-function can use the parameter "number" to numerate your entries

Thank you again, lomkiri, for your assistance but the above is completely over my head. (As you might have read in my reply above to @theducks)
