Project Properties Reference > Browser-based Help

This section allows you to edit the HTML template that defines the layout and appearance of the Table of Contents pane in your Browser-based Help output. See Using HTML Templates for full details.

Simple editing mode:

When the Let me edit HTML code directly option at the top of the dialog is not selected you can only define some basic options for the Table of Contents template. This mode is recommended if you do not have experience with editing HTML code!

Let me edit HTML code directly:	Activate this check box to view and edit the HTML code of the template. See below for details on direct HTML editing mode.
	This button automatically clears the HTML template and reloads the default template. Use with caution – this function completely overwrites all your editing changes! If you select the button accidentally just click .
Text above TOC headings: Text below TOC headings:	Any text you enter in these two editing boxes will be inserted above and below the TOC tree with the topic entries. For example, you might want to enter the title of your project above the tree and a copyright notice below the tree. HTML tags are allowed. The default code inserts the title of your project and links to the Keyword Index and Full-text Search panes (if activated in your settings). Please do not change this code unless you really understand how it works.
Format of TOC headings:	These settings define the formatting styles to be used for the headings in your TOC. You can use up to six levels. However, note that users will normally find anything more than a maximum of three levels generally and four in exceptional cases confusing and difficult to navigate.

HTML editing mode:

When the Let me edit HTML code directly option at the top of the dialog is selected you can edit all the code of the TOC template manually. Experience in editing HTML code is necessary for using this mode!

Also, please note that the code in this template is essential for the proper functioning of the TOC. Please don't change or delete anything that you don't understand!

Note that switching back to simple editing mode from HTML editing mode will overwrite all your changes with the default TOC template! If you do this accidentally just click Cancel.

Here too, this button automatically clears the HTML template and reloads the default template. Use with caution – this function completely overwrites all your editing changes!

If you select the button accidentally just click .

Editing window:
