Hi Rick, it depends entirely on your DTD/Schema, but if designed correctly,
it's easy to do. For example, assume your DTD has a <section> element,
which contains a <title> and <para>:
<section>
<title>My Section</title>
<para>Some content.</para>
</section>
You could allow the <section> element to be used in other sections, or at
the top level of a chapter:
<chapter>
<section>
<title>My Section</title>
<para>Some content.</para>
<section>
<title>My Second Section</title>
<para>Some more content.</para>
</section>
</section>
Using the level rules in your Frame EDD, you could format the <title>
according to its level.
For an example that implements this concept, see the recursive section
element in DocBook:
http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/section.html
If you have a copy of Frame, you can open a new, blank DocBook document, and
play around with nested sections to get an idea.
