WAS: Structured: about containers, NOW: Publish ePub

Several people have advised me to stick to unstructured Frame for my 
project, so I’ll comply.

To recap: To start my project I used the new Frame 12 templates by 
Bernard Aschwanden for unstructured "user manual" because I wanted to 
learn about how to use Frame in new ways (I had just upgraded from v8). 
I then built a Frame book for my two crime fiction novellas which 
generates TOC and publishes to pdf just fine.

Originally when I published to epub the chapters came out in a bizarre 
order, so I thought that the underlying Frame book structure was somehow 
"not coming through" to the epub—this is why I thought I had to move to 
structured Frame. Now onwards.

Today, the Publish ePub successfully completes. Looking at the ebook in 
Sigil (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigil_%28application%29) the TOC is 
completely screwy. Sigil has three panels: files in book, display of 
selected file contents, and TOC. Clicking on any entry in the TOC 
produces the error "File x does not exist", where x is the fm book 
component file name.

There is also one CSS per file in book, so about 30 of them.

Ideas?

Thanks,
Theresa
