Create table of contents

[Steven Pemberton-3]

I was trying to create a table of contents. I placed the cursor in a new  
paragraph near the top of the document, and selected the option "Tools>Add  
table of contents", and got a dialog box "! Not allowed".

I think an explanation of why not would at least be helpful here. I can't  
see any reason why it shouldn't be allowed.

Best wishes,

I tried to reproduce the error, using the latest pre-release [1] on
Windows but wasn't able to. The only error I was able to get was a
"Read only element", triggered if I try to insert a table of contents
in Amaya's welcome page [2] *without* clicking in the document first,
which makes some sense.

Are you able to attach an example HTML file (it it happens with
particular file) and/or better explain the needed steps to reproduce
(if you are able to reproduce consistently)? Also, Amaya version and
operating system is almost a requirement in every support request...
;-)

Actually, I wasn't asking for a fix, just a better dialog box to explain  
why it isn't possible, so I can fix it. That should be version and OS  
independent.

I detected that the operation failed when the selection is not empty.
That problem is now fixed.
