Description: Adding of a Table of Contens tag to the standard distribution of PmWiki. Something like http://www.pmichaud.com/wiki/Cookbook/PageTableOfContents would be great.

Given the existence of the cookbook script, I'm not quite ready to make this a part of the standard distribution. It needs a few more priority votes and some fleshing out of the basic concepts.

--Pm

Suggestions

• the toc entrys are Links to the headings
• <Toc Auto Depth> variable to define the heading depth that gets displayed like: (:toc 2 5:)
• possibility to display the toc in a other page (for example in a sidebar) without the constraint to have the directive also in the target page
• either replicate all the functionality of Cookbook/PageTableOfContents or write it in a way that a cookbook recipe can add just the missing features
• the headings has a link to the toc

more general suggestion

• Compatible to Cookbook.NumberedHeaders
• if there is a link form the toc to the heading, there will be a anchor on the heading. To have a anchor on every heading in pages per default (not with the anchor markup) could be very usefull. Maby, it could be a way to make a script for building automatilcy anchors on headings (setable for all pages or just for pages with a toc) and a toc script that makes a list of headings with a link to it. noskule

It's also worthy of note that TOC is a core feature in many currently popular wiki engines (e.g. MediaWiki, Dokuwiki). MateuszCzaplinski
