Hi josiegray, this is a known issue—thanks for opening! It belongs in https://github.com/pressbooks/pressbooks-book, though. Would you mind moving it there?

Prerequisites
Description
A user has identified that the web-book table of contents behaves differently in different browsers:
In Chrome and Microsoft Edge, when you click on a "Part" in the table of contents (See "What is Technical Communication?" in image below) and the part contains text, the browser opens to the Part, even if there are individual pages within that part, which is the desired behaviour. In Firefox, that doesn't happen. In Firefox, parts that contain text will only open if the part does not contain pages. If the part does contain pages, the drop-down menu will expand to display the individual pages within the part, but will not display the text content of the part itself.
Expected behaviour
In all browsers: when a part contains text (whether or not it also contains individual pages), a user should be able to navigate directly to the part by clicking on the name of the part in the table of contents. As it is now, this is only the case in Chrome and Microsoft Edge, but not in Firefox.
Actual behaviour
In Firefox, when you click on a "Part" in the table of contents from the book's home page, it will display the pages within that part, but it will not open the part itself. It will only open to the part if there are no pages within the part. Chrome and Microsoft Edge behave as expected.
