I agree, although I must say that chapter ToCs - not section ToCs - in the LangRef may be useful. But we can always see about that later. So for now, let's take the most conservative approach and apply this change to the multi-page HTML build of the refdocs set only (i.e. LangRef and LangRefUpds) and leave everything else untouched.

I've stopped using monohtml for release notes - so far, only the FB3 notes are multi-page but I have set up places in the web structure for the others, when I get around to building them. The reason for this is the lack of breadcrumbs in the monohtml. > PDF is very different and already has the navigation pane, so local > ToCs are probably less useful there.

It would likely make a big mess of release notes as, since v.2.0, AFAIR, the DDL and DML sections have a hard-coded "TOC" at the beginning of each of those chapters, anyway. I am loath to start mucking around with the sources of older release notes, which would put them out of synch with the translations. As for the other docs, I haven't worked with the sources of them. Perhaps Norm would like to comment. Helen -- Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting.

The four HTML builds at firebird.vinkenoog.nl each comprise the entire book. But notice that the (local) changes I made only apply to multipage HTML. Of course we can do the same for monohtml (as you use for the rlsnotes), but we can also leave that build as-is or make other adjustments. PDF is very different and already has the navigation pane, so local ToCs are probably less useful there. However, we can do it if we want. I've added a PDF with chapter ToCs to the above page as an example. > Got your corrections for the BIN* functions, thanks. I will probably > defer a new build until I have the new template on board. I'll commit the '2-2-2' variant then for now. But shall I do it just for the refdocs set or for all our HTML docs? Cheers, Paul -- Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting.
