The Table of Contents Applet implements a tree view interface similar to the Win95/NT Explorer. When the applet is enabled in an HTML page for a project (such as m_toc.html), the content of the tree view comes from a script file (such as m_tree.script).
For this TechPubTools project, the input m_tree.script file specified in the Java applet parameters nests individual m_tree*.script files.
The Java applet that powers the table of contents cannot be used and distributed freely in your HTML documentation system.
However, it is affordable. When we ordered it (in January 2002), the source code for the applet and the rights to distribute the applet were $990, I believe. Cheap when I considered how much of my time had already been consumed trying to re-invent this wheel and that my versions were lop-sided and severely lacking in comparison.
Note: Because the Java applet had been available for quite some time on this website, it took several e-mails to eventually find the owner and arrange payment to make our use and distribution of the applet legal. It was a bonus to get the source code.
Please refer to www.better-homepage.com/java/java-applets-toc.html or use an Internet search engine with the criteria java applet table of contents.
