The color shading idea is great. Had not thought of that. I think a table of contents is tabular data ... it`s called a "table" of contents.

But I agree. Actually I could probably create something that looked exactly the same with tables or lists. Or with <p> elements.

Rich - how is a table of contents not tabular data?


If it was

XXX ........ #pagenum

I would agree but it`s

* XX
  * XXX
  * XXX
  * XXX
     * XXX
  * XXX
*XX
  * XXX

Looks like nested lists to me!

If you using a single column table, as CookieMonster is, you can probably do it more efficiently with lists and actually add structure to the content. The current implementation would be useless to someone using a screen reader.

Also, CookieMonster should be able to reduce the size of the file sent using lists and style sheets.

I just don`t like bullets for this unless you`re using some roman numeral outline format.


So turn them off using CSS.
