Hi Alma, > I have created a single web page that contains the TOC and links to various > section in the page. I would like to know when the Make book feature comes > in to picture here? Or how it is used here? > Did not understand the manual. I've never used the feature but have just crawled to the manual [1] to check if I could understand it. I'll try to clear it up it's goal use-case a bit: maintaining large documents. Let's start by knowing this isn't useful not applicable to a single page document (the TOC can be used for that). The idea is that you have multiple, separate pages with links between them (think: "chapters"). If the links are created according to the documentation [1] for the "MakeBook" feature, then you'll be able to assemble the set of pages into a single volume: a large/huge page containing all files in the given order. I imagine one will keep on working in the separate files independently (because it's easier and it also helps collaboration in a chapter-per-author use-case) and then, periodically, assemble the whole document ("book") for reviewing or publishing. So, this is really a simple yet great feature I wasn't aware of and which may prove useful in a distant future: whenever I'm able to find knowledge and time to actually write a book... :-D Thanks for bringing up. ;-) > Please help. Hope this helps, Helder [1] http://dev.w3.org/Amaya/doc/WX/MakeBook.html#page_body
