Is there any other mechanism used for chapters in ebooks? It's an area I have not paid too much attention to so far. Do any formats actually have chapters as metadata, other than PDF, which I know can certainly have them?
CoolReader is supposed to support hyperlinks inside the book but there may be a bug in how this is implemented. I am trying to get to the bottom of this. CoolReader uses the Goto function to support TOC on some formats that have TOC. It displays the page number next to the TOC entry and you type in the page number and hit OK to go to that page.

Outside of TOC some formats have TOC and some do not. ePUB has TOC and even multilevel TOC as does PDF. Use the 7 key to access it. Mobi has TOC although it works by referencing hyperlinks in the file, DOC has TOC support. I am not sure about some of the others.
