Putting subsections in the TOC

petercrowell · 04-30-2012, 06:44 AM

Hi,

I'd like my TOC to contain subsections, like this:

Main section
subsection
subsection
subsection
Main section 2
etc.

All main and subsections should be live nav points in the toc. How do I format my toc, (or would it be my book.html file?) to break the toc out that way?

Thanks!

Just do it as you would any other HTML page and put in the links manually, then add a "toc" entry to the "Guide" section of the OPF to tell Mobi where the TOC is.

ie, format it manually - don't use the TOC "wizard".

Hi Harry, thanks for your response.

Man I have no idea what the TOC Wizard is! But I've decided not to use subsections for aesthetic reasons, so it's no longer an issue.

Thanks again!

I believe what you need is to publish your mobi in periodical format.
