|
---|
| 25 | directly to the location of the
|
---|
| 26 | generated <tag>anchor</tag> that is output
|
---|
| 27 | for the indexterm. If two identical indexterm elements
|
---|
| 28 | exist in the same section, then both entries appear
|
---|
| 29 | in the index with the same title but link to different
|
---|
| 30 | locations.</para>

| 31 |
|
---|
| 32 | <para>If non-zero, then an index entry in an index links to the

| 33 | section title containing the <tag>indexterm</tag>, rather than
|
---|
| 34 | directly to the <tag>anchor</tag> output for the indexterm.

| 38 | <para>The default value is 1, so index entries link to

| 40 |
|
---|
| 41 | <para>In both cases, the link text in an index entry is the
|
---|
| 42 | title of the section containing the indexterm.
|
---|
| 43 | That is because HTML does not have numbered pages.
|
---|
| 44 | It also provides the reader with context information
|
---|
| 45 | for each link.</para>

|
---|
| 52 | <para>When set to 0, an index entry takes you
|

| 53 | to the precise location of its corresponding indexterm.
|
---|
| 54 | However, if you have a lot of duplicate
|
---|
| 55 | entries in sections, then you have a lot of duplicate
|
---|
| 56 | titles in the index, which makes it more cluttered.
|
---|
| 57 | The reader may not recognize why duplicate titles
|
---|
| 58 | appear until they follow the links. Also, the links
|
---|
| 59 | may land the reader in the middle of a section where the
|
---|
| 60 | section title is not visible, which may also be
|
---|
| 61 | confusing to the reader.</para>

| 64 | <para>When set to 1, an index entry link is

| 65 | less precise, but duplicate titles in the

| 66 | index entries are eliminated.
|
---|
| 67 | Landing on the section title location may confirm the reader's
|
---|
| 68 | expectation that a link that
|
---|
| 69 | shows a section title will take them to that section title,
|
---|
| 70 | not a location within the section.
