{{TOC left}} forces the auto-generated "Table of Contents" for a page to appear in a table that is floated to the left side of the page (as seen left), in order to improve page layout.
Usage
Insert {{TOC left}}
at the point in the page where you want the top of the Table of Contents box to appear. Use with {{-}} or {{clear}} to prevent collision with text; use the clear parameter (see below) to prevent collision with images.
Parameters (optional)
- clear
- Sets the CSS clear property, which forces this float underneath the side specified with this attribute. So,
clear=left
(which is the default) will place the element after all the right floating elements before it. Options areleft
,right
,both
, ornone
.
- width
- Set the CSS width.
- limit
- Limits the depth of subheadings shown. For instance using
limit=4
will hide the fourth level and deeper subheadings in the hierarchy. Andlimit=2
will hide all subheadings leaving only the main headings. This is implemented as a CSS class in the MediaWiki:Common.css.
- Avoid placing the TOC in a visually poor location. Crossing a section division is probably a poor idea.
- If the TOC is floated left of a bulleted list, the bullets will be hidden.
