I think I can help with the magic... but my server today doesn't working
properly... I hope this msg will go to his destination.
Tables of contents entries are generated only by the sectioning
commands. In order to add a new entry you should type in Tex mode the
following
command:
\addcontentsline{toc}{sec_unit}{entry}
where sec_unit is chapter, section... as you want the appearance in the
toc
and entry is Preface, Bibliography, Goofy or anything else!
Put the command just after the right heading in your document (but check
the
page number in the toc... in the past were reported some problems of a
wrong
page number... so you should adjust the position of the command}.
Hope this help.
