TOC - how can I get one on page?

[OllieMackJames]

SOLVED: easiest way is to use the HannaCode example from @ryan as mentioned here: https://processwire.com/modules/process-hanna-code/#jumplinks-hanna-code-example-for-import

I am trying to get a Table of content that will display - wikipedia style - all different headers on one page in a table.

I need the TOC to automatically run down the page and pick the H2, H3 and H4 headers and put them in the TOC, with the link to those headers right in the TOC.

Anybody know how to do this?

Thnks!

I could have sworn that i've once seen something like this floating around the forum. I think it was a textformatter that autmates toc and is used on the PW sites for blog posts and such. Can't find it though

Well if a jQuery solution is OK to you here's one.

Was looking for this too) I guess this is it.

Hope it will help someone as this topic is #1 result for the search "textformatter toc". Found the link with some nice extra content here.

Thanks @Ivan Gretsky I will look at this and for sure update my code snippet :

use PHPHtmlParser\Dom;

function print_toc($html, $link = '', $depth = 1) {
    $dom = new Dom;
    $dom->loadStr($html);
    $headings = $dom->find('h'. $depth);
    $toc = '';
    foreach ($headings as $h) {
        $name = wire('sanitizer')->pageName($h->text);
        $name = strtolower($name);
        if($name) $toc .= "<li><a href='{$link}#{$name}'>$h->text</a>";
    }

    return "<ul>$toc</ul>";
}
