Table of Contents Area

HTML and JAVA tabs: Two ways of navigating library.municode.com

The HTML Table of Contents:

The HTML table of contents shows the name of the site and the first level of documents or folders in the site.

Within the HTML table of contents, not every heading corresponds to a document. Folder nodes can contain other folders or documents. To see a document, you must expand the table of contents until you see a document icon.

For example, click a folder icon to expand it and display the folders content. When you expand a branch of the table of contents, notice how the separator line moves and you see the children (below the line) of each parent node you click.

To navigate back up in the table of contents, click one of the folder icons above the separator line.

The Java Table of Contents

The other table of contents option is the Java table of contents. If your browser supports Java, you can switch to the Java table of contents by clicking the Java tab.

Click the plus icon to expand the headings. The Java table of contents does not have a separator line like the HTML table of contents and looks and feels very similar to Windows Explorer ®. You see the entire table of contents, which helps you to view the information in context.
