Creating a Table of Contents

For online outputs, a table of contents is a list of topics with which the user navigates the site. Before you build your output, you must add your topics to a table of contents and assign the table to a target. This guide focuses on building an online table of contents for an HTML5 output. For information on creating a table of contents for PDF outputs, see “Differences for PDF Output.”
