Generates a table of contents based on all the headings on the page.

The resulting list is wrapped inside a DIV tag, which can be used to create the style and look of the TOC, and a Collapsible Box style.

Parameters#

title

string : The title for the table of contents. By default, uses no heading.

numbered

yes | no : Optional parameter to add numbers to the TOC items

Example#

Basic Table of Contents (with default heading)

[{TableOfContents}]

Table of Contents, with alternate title and item numbering

[{TableOfContents title='Page content' numbered='yes'}]

About the generated HTML#

The list that is created is essentially an HTML ul -list. The generated HTML might look like this:

<div class="toc">
<div class="collapsebox">
  <ul>
    <li> <a class="wikipage" href="Wiki.jsp?page=SandBox2#section-SandBox2-QuickReference">Quick reference</a></li>
    <li> <a class="wikipage" href="Wiki.jsp?page=SandBox2#section-SandBox2-WritingText">Writing text</a></li>
    <li> <a class="wikipage" href="Wiki.jsp?page=SandBox2#section-SandBox2-Hyperlinks">Hyperlinks</a></li>
    <li> <a class="wikipage" href="Wiki.jsp?page=SandBox2#section-SandBox2-Footnotes">Footnotes</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>
</div>

The look-and-feel of what it actually looks like on the browser is achieved through the magic of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Take a look at the default template jspwiki.css file for further information.

The title is rendered as a HTML H2 element.

I'm a bit confused - is this different from the TableOfContentsPlugin?

This describes the version of the plugin as present in the v2.4.x. It is also part of the documentation page for v2.4. --DF
