These templates are designed to aid in producing tables of contents (TOCs) using a standardised set of table sections. They are begun with a {{TOC begin}} and are ended with {{TOC end}}.

The aim of these templates is to divorce the TOC from the underlying code. If you have a new circumstance to format, perhaps the best option is to make a new template, rather than hack an old one to fit.

Parameters
  • align: alignment of the table on the page, defaults to central (optional)
  • width: table width (optional, any CSS units), | width = 100%
  • max-width: table max-width (optional, any CSS units), | max-width = 35em
  • sc: applies small-caps to the entire table (optional), | sc = yes
  • style: applies any other free-form style to the entire table (optional/no default), | style = line-height:1
  • plus: allows addition of separate code (optional), e.g. to set table attributes | plus = cellpadding {{=}} 5  ( refer Template:= )

Template are named by the colspan of their cells (in order) and the salient feature of any cells that are not "normal".

For example, a row of three single cells is {{TOC row 1-1-1}}, and a row with a colspan-2 cell followed by a single cell is {{TOC row 2-1}}. If a cell has no colspan but a salient feature, the "1" from that cell is omitted: {{TOC row 1-out-1}}

  • {{TOC row l}}: a single cell, text left-aligned, with a colspan given in the first parameter, and contents in the second.
  • {{TOC row c}}: a single cell, text centred, with a colspan given in the first parameter, and contents in the second.
  • {{TOC row r}}: a single cell, text right-aligned, with a colspan given in the first parameter, and contents in the second.

3-column tables are perhaps the most common type. The "normal" condition is for the first and last columns to be right-aligned, and the middle column to be left aligned.

  • {{TOC row 1-1-1}}: three single cells, right-left-right aligned, respectively
  • {{TOC row 2-1}}: a colspan=2 cell and a normal cell. Left and right aligned respectively.
Hanging indents
Different alignment of the main cell
  • {{TOC row 1-r-1}}: three single cells, left-right-right aligned, respectively.
  • {{TOC row 1-c-1}}: three single cells, left-center-right aligned, respectively.

Some works have TOCs which have a variably-sized right column, with the left column of other rows sometimes overlapping it. This is often found in periodicals where multiple parts of a serial work are listed on the same line.

  • {{TOC row ragged}}:
    • 1 is the left-aligned main content
    • 2 is the right "column".
    • colspan is the colspan of the whole row to allow it to work with other row templates. Default is 3 (so it will work by default with {{TOC row 1-1-1}}, for example).
    • margin is the size of the inset of the entry from left. Default is 2em.
    • indent is the size of the overhang of the first line. Default is 2em.

If a single ragged entry spans multiple pages, the templates {{TOC row ragged/s}} and {{TOC row ragged/e}} should be used, with the page numbers specified as parameter 1 of {{TOC row ragged/e}}. The margin parameters of {{TOC row ragged/e}} and {{TOC row ragged/s}} should be the same.

If a table is broken across multiple, as is common for long TOCs, you need to add a {{nop}} to the top of every page body, to prevent the transclusion running the last line of the previous page into the first line of that page. You also need to put a {{TOC begin}} in the header of the page to make it render properly in the Page: namespace, and you should close the table in the footer of every page except the last:

First page body
{{TOC begin}}
{{TOC row.....}}
First page footer
{{TOC end}}
Middle page header
{{TOC begin}}
Middle pages body
{{nop}}
{{TOC row.......}}
{{TOC row.......}}
Middle pages footer
{{TOC end}}
Last page header
{{TOC begin}}
Last page body
{{nop}}

These templates should export well:

  • They produce a single contiguous table, which means alignment should be maintained even in simple HTML engines (unlike, for example, {{TOCstyle}})
  • The CSS is designed to enable reasonably responsive design compared to "minimally-styled" tables. For example:
    • A max-width:100%; is applied to prevent the table extending off the right of a narrow page.
    • Vertical alignments are set to avoid "middle-floating" cells when one cell wraps. Many TOCs will start wrapping on Mobile or e-reader screens when they do not on the desktop web interface.
    • Text wrapping is disabled by default for the "small" cells: some engines will attempt to hyphenate longer numbers like "1234" or "xxxviii" otherwise.

Dot-leaders are disabled on export, as in the other dot-leader templates, because no known e-reader engine displays anything other than a field of dots.

Navigation templates are used to help a reader navigate through or between texts.
