Table of Contents pagenumbers not displaying on Windows/office

This is:

• a bug report
• a feature request

Expected Behavior

My word export generates a Table of Contents, with clickable links which point to the correct title. However, the page numbers are not displayed in the table of contents.

<?php
 $this->getSettings()->setUpdateFields(true);

Update field setting is set, and after applying this word will query for missing links. Still, no numbers are shown. This works for OSX and office for mac, so it appears to be a program/os related issue.

Update 8-06: The protected mode of a word document seems to cause this issue. If a word document is protected, and you need to switch it manually to edit mode the table of contents numbers are not updated.

Context

• PHP version:5.3.18
• PHPWord version: 0.14

I'm also facing the same issue.

I do have the same issue, but i noticed that the behaviour can be different on different word versions.
In all cases the TOC is not accurate with the pages.

This still seems to be an issue. Quite a curious issue.

I've found a possible solution: just change in PhpWord/Writer/Word2007/Element/TOC.php the line 116 from

$xmlWriter->text("PAGEREF _Toc{$rId} \\h");

to

$xmlWriter->text("PAGEREF $rId \\h");

using $phpWord->getSettings()->setUpdateFields(true); it seems it works.
