<p>i'd rather see something like the sample html below. i don't understand the use of an unordered list with anchor tags and hard breaks instead of list items, and i think a table offers more control. note that i added a row header, "Table of Contents." also, i renamed the existing css class and added others, and added a comma-space-hard break after New Notes.</p>

<table class="nnTOC" cellspacing="0">

<th class="nnTOCtop" name="toc_top"><a href="#toc_top">Table of Contents</a></th>

<p>here's how it looks:</p>
<table class="nnTOC" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<th class="nnTOCtop" name="toc_top"><a href="#toc_top">Table of Contents</a></th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="nnTOCbody">

<p>no css changes are neccessary to view this properly in any browser. with a little css magic, it's possible to make the TOC body appear on fewer lines: <code><style> .nnTOCbody br { display: none; }</style></code>
<p>let me know what you think.</p>
