Thanks, Ian.  I've done things like that in the past, but it'd entail
maintaining the TOC by hand, which I was hoping to avoid.  True, I'd be
able to create the initial TOC using org-mode, followed by manually
inserting jQuery calls.  But I'd have to manually edit the TOC every time I
added a new chapter or section and every time I edited a heading title.
