[texhax] Adding section levels and repeated text.

[Peter Davis]

For a particular document, I'm trying to define up to six section levels,
using the \@startsection command.  However, any new levels (beyond
subsubsection) add the section title to the body text inside the section, in
addition to including it in the header.  In other words, the section title
is repeated, in body text, inside the section.  Can anyone explain this, or
how to prevent it?  Thank you!

Here's a simple sample:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}

\title{Adding Section Levels}

\begin{document}

\setcounter{secnumdepth}{6}

\makeatletter

\newcommand\hi{\@startsection %
  {section}{1}{0mm}%
  {-\baselineskip}%
  {0.5\baselineskip}%
  {\normalsize\sffamily\bfseries}}%

\newcommand\hii{\@startsection %
  {subsection}{2}{0mm}%
  {-\baselineskip}%
  {0.5\baselineskip}%
  {\normalsize\sffamily\bfseries}}%

\newcommand\hiii{\@startsection %
  {subsubsection}{3}{0mm}%
  {-\baselineskip}%
  {0.5\baselineskip}%
  {\normalsize\sffamily\bfseries}}%

\newcounter{subsubsubsection}
\newcommand\hiv{\@startsection %
  {subsubsubsection}{4}{0mm}%
  {-\baselineskip}%
  {0.5\baselineskip}%
  {\normalsize\sffamily\bfseries}}%
\renewcommand{\thesubsubsubsection}{\thesubsubsection.\arabic{subsubsubsection}}

\newcounter{subsubsubsubsection}
\newcommand\hv{\@startsection %
  {subsubsubsubsection}{5}{0mm}%
  {-\baselineskip}%
  {0.5\baselineskip}%
  {\normalsize\sffamily\bfseries}}%
\renewcommand{\thesubsubsubsubsection}{\thesubsubsubsection.\arabic{subsubsubsubsection}}

\newcounter{subsubsubsubsubsection}
\newcommand\hvi{\@startsection %
  {subsubsubsubsubsection}{6}{0mm}%
  {-\baselineskip}%
  {0.5\baselineskip}%
  {\normalsize\sffamily\bfseries}}%
\renewcommand{\thesubsubsubsubsubsection}{\thesubsubsubsection.\arabic{subsubsubsubsubsection}}

\makeatother
