Converting a web page to epub with TOC
What's the simplest way to convert a web page to epub with a table of contents? I could use a simple tutorial. Here's the webpage http://www.accesstoinsight.org/lib/t...tartsmall.html . Do I save it from the source view and strip out everything that's not needed? Then what do I do? I'd like each section title to show up as a TOC that so that I can just jump to those sections just as the web page shows it. I'm a newbie to Caliber but do know a bit of basic html. Thanx.

Hi philosopherdog, Welcome to the forum.
I've had a quick look at your webpage. The html seems fairly simple. Here's a step-by-step which worked for me - I use the Firefox browser:-
Please note that these settings are relevant for this particular web page as it uses <h1>...</h1> to mark its chapters. For a different webpage you would need to examine the html file to see how new chapters have been marked up. Caveat - I have never owned or used an Apple device so I don't know whether there are extra special considerations. Good luck |

I don't use it, but I believe it just grabs a web page and saves it to disk as html. It's similar to saving a page to disk from your browser, but it has more options so it can pull some content, skip other content and follow links to other pages and grab them. All that I know is at the link I posted.
