Creates an expandable Table-of-Contents on ANY web-page with headings
== Starting ==
The extension's icon toggles the Table-of-Contents (ToC) of the current tab.
== Attributes ==
1) Makes much more easier the READING of ANY web-page with many headings like scientific-papers, law, spec, help, etc files, because creates their outline.
2) The Table-of-Contents is an EXPANDABLE-tree which helps navigating it.
3) TWO-WAY communication between ToC and webpage. By hovering a piece of text on the page, highlights in the toc-tree its position (with some exceptions!!!) and expands only its parent-nodes. Thus, we have the BIG-PICTURE of what we are reading.
4) You can change the WIDTH of ToC or webpage.

== Evolution ==
* My html5.id.toc.preview format (http://synagonism.net/hitp/) creates a ToC on ANY browser.
* In 2010, I published my JAVA open-source HtmlMgr program (http://htmlmgr.sourceforge.net/) where I propose, for the first time, how we can create webpages that anyone can refer to any part of them and we can read easily.

- (2023-04-18) Leon Niceday: Works well. For very big documents it's very slow to start (kind of expectedly...). I'd appreciate some options to customize things : like font, and to be able to enable/disable some of the cpu-intensive tasks to be able to make it faster on big docs. But,thanks anyway! it helps.

- (2015-07-16) Alex W.: Works okay, sort of flips out when you move the mouse around the page. Would appreciate if it could indicate when it detects a proper outline, as a little reminder.
