I would be overjoyed to get a hot-linked index.  I'll give you the 
Microsoft Word source, or the HTML that it produces when I create a Web 
page, and you can go to it.

If I give you the source, you could add to the index callouts if you 
like.  I found that to be a surprisingly onerous task.

The web pages are built as follows:

I save the source in Word as HTML;
I run a script to find the chapters & split them into pages;
the script installs the navigation header/footer in each page.

The Index chapter is deleted because it is meaningless.

If this seems OK, email me off-list & we'll get started.
