Karen,
When inserting your <a name=""> elements, on the excerpts page, you
should not leave it *empty* before closing that <a> element, ie:
<a name="4"></a><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Chapter IV

but, instead, wrap your <a> around another tag or text, ie:
<b><font face="Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><a name="4">Chapter IV</a>

Netscape tends to *break* when documenting butted tags with nothing in
between the beginning and the ending tag.
