Juan Manuel-- Thanks. I understand no pages in a web document; I thought (hoped?) that section/subsection numbers, perhaps multiple, would appear next to the entries in the index. I will try to be more specific with the ! syntax
Any advice for how to get *both* theindex.html and my main document in html? So far I can only get one or the other, depending on whether I include a non-nil value for a :makeindex option.
