Fixed in git, commit 46f76ca8, by suppressing the TOC for anything that is not for printing.

Since version 5.9, the HTML version of the manual on the website [1] has the bold and large words "Table of Contents" as the third line, followed by a table that includes the entries for all subsections of chapters 4 and 8.  That is too much detail.  The links at the top of the page should be just for the ten separate chapters (as it was [2]).  If a chapter has sections, the user will see that when she gets there.  To have all that detail at the top is cluttering and frustrating and discouraging: on my small laptop I cannot even see the start of the Introduction chapter, making me want to just give up and close the tab.
