# `<toc>`

The `<toc>` element indicates to the processing software that the author wants a table of contents generated at the particular location. If no `@href` attribute is specified on the `<toc>` element, an external processor may generate table of contents at this location. If the `@href` attribute references a topic or map, that topic or map should contain a manually created table of contents.
