<h3>Default Reading Order</h3>

<p>The <dfn>default reading order</dfn> is a specific progression through the <a>primary resources</a>.</p>

<p>A user might follow alternative pathways through the content, but in the absence of such interaction the
default reading order defines the expected progression from one primary resource to the next.</p>

<p>The default reading order MUST include at least one <a>primary resource</a>.</p>

<p>The default reading order is either specified directly in the manifest or a link is provided to an
[[!html]] <code>nav</code> element whose list of links are processed to create one.</p>

<p>The process for extracting a default reading order from a <code>nav</code> element are as follows:</p>

<ol>
<li>extract a list of resource paths referenced from the <code>href</code> attribute of all
<code>a</code> elements;</li>
<li>strip any fragment identifiers from the references;</li>
<li>resolve all relative paths to full URLs;</li>
<li>remove all consecutive references to the same resource, leaving only the first.</li>
</ol>

<p>If a user agent requires a default reading order and one is not provided in the infoset, it MAY attempt to
construct one. This specification does not mandate how such a default reading order is created. The user
agent might:</p>

<ul>
<li>use only the resource the user accessed to reach the manifest;</li>
<li>search the list of resources for a <code>nav</code> element to use;</li>

<h3>Table of Contents</h3>

<div class="ednote">Placeholder for identifying table of contents - whether embedded or by reference.</div>
<p>The table of contents provides access to major sections of the Web Publication. There are no requirements
on the completeness of the table of contents, except that, when specified, it MUST link to at least one
primary resource.</p>

<p>The table of contents is either specified directly in the manifest or a link is provided to an [[!html]]
<code>nav</code> element containing one.</p>

<p> If a user agent requires a table of contents and one is not specified, it MAY construct one. This
specification does not mandate how such a table of contents is created. The user agent might: </p>

<ol>
<li>attempt to locate a table of contents in a primary resource (e.g., that has the <code>role</code>
attribute value <code>doc-toc</code>);</li>
<li>use the titles of the primary resources in the default reading order;</li>
<li>calculate a table of contents using its own algorithms.</li>
