Thanks Jon - a much better explanation than mine!

I think the problem is that we've been talking about different things. The real "TOC" - the thing that the Reader displays on its "Table of Contents" menu item - is just a linear list. What we've been discussing isn't that, but using hyperlinks within the doc to create something like LOOKS like a "traditional" TOC in a paper book. We call it a TOC, but it's not one as far as the Reader is concerned - it's just a bunch of hyperlinks.
