General info on using the database Viewing "Tables of Content" Sometimes, when one clicks on "Contents" at the online books homepage, one sees a very general list of Chapters and their pages. However, if one pages thru the book until the " Table of Contents " is reached, then the complete , detailed Table of Contents will be viewable. I understand "cold" URL's are inconvenient. However, 'database' seems the best option for keeping the cites wieldy. Try using 2 windows, one for reading w/ the database in the background.
