Automatic section anchors

[jecisc]

Each section title should automatically generate an implicit hyperlink target (aka, anchor) pointing to the section. The text of the hyperlink target (the "reference name") is the same as that of the section title.

The users could enable or disable this enhancement ? Because I think for a static web site it could be better to choose.

ok for me

It's done with :

• Pillar-ExporterCore-YannDubois.264
• Pillar-Model-YannDubois.246

and tests :

• Pillar-Tests-Model-YannDubois.181

A todo is stay, because it's possible to have duplicated anchors

[YannDub]

I work on the duplicated anchors, and for now, the automatic generated anchors name are always encoded like :
anchorName@occurence

• anchorName : the name of the anchor.
• @ : a character to separate the name and the occurence.
• occurence : the actual number (when I browse the tree) of the anchor.

But this way don't work when we have already an anchor with a name which will be generated, for example (in html) :

<h1>Test</h1>
....
<a id='Test@1'></a>

It will render after transformation :

<h1>Test</h1>
<a id='Test@1'></a>
....
<a id='Test@1'></a>

If you have a better idea...

I managed the duplicated anchors with :

• Pillar-Model-YannDubois.252
• Pillar-Tests-Model-YannDubois.186

I use my previous post but I extend the idea to checking anchors before transformation.
