Hello,

I am using org-export-as-html with the body-only parameter set to t
in the org plugin for ikiwiki that I'm working on.  It works almost
perfectly, but I recently had a user point out that it's not possible to
get a table of contents, even when one is explicitly asked for in the
#+OPTIONS line of the org file.

Since the table of contents is part of the body (at least in the sense
that it is between the <body> tags), I found this surprising.  So would
it cause problems to change the line

(if (and org-export-with-toc (not body-only))
...)

to

(if org-export-with-toc
...)

in org-export-as-html?  

Cheers,
Chris

I see one problem in that it would be then be inconsistent with
org-export-as-ascii which considers the TOC to be part of the header.  I
would like to be able to export just the TOC (as ascii, and I understand
a new ascii exporter has been written lately).  The same thing for the
html exporter would presumably solve your problem too because then you
could export TOC+body (as html)?

Hi Myles,

Sorry I missed your email for so long.

The thing is, the docstring is not consistent with the code.  It would
make my life easier if the code was changed to match the docstring, but
I would also be okay if the opposite happened.

I am also looking forward to the new exporter being ready, but I guess
this small issue should be fixed in the current exporter until it is.

I have attached the patch that I suggested for the HTML exporter.

Cheers,
Chris

Subject: [PATCH] Bring the meaning of body-only in org-export-as-html closer
 to docs

The docstring for org-export-as-html says "When BODY-ONLY is set,
don't produce the file header and footer, simply return the content of
<body>...</body>, without even the body tags themselves."  However, it
currently also inhibits the generation of the table of contents,
regardless if one is asked for by the user in the #+OPTIONS line of
the file.  This patch fixes that (i.e. allows for toc generation if it
is requested).

I'm ready to apply this patch, but can you add a proper Emacs 
ChangeLog?

Updated patch attached.

By the way, I am in the "Processing" section in the list of people who
have signed papers on Worg.  However, I received confirmation that my
papers went through a long time ago.  Should I correct Worg on this?

Cheers,
Chris

Subject: [PATCH] Export: Allow for TOC generation if body-only is set

* lisp/org-html.el (org-export-as-html): Remove the check for
body-only in the code for generating tables of contents.

The docstring for org-export-as-html states that the body-only flag
removes everything outside the <body></body> tags (inclusive).  Since
the table of contents is inside these tags, it should be exported when
requested even if the body-only flag is set.

Applied, thanks for the effort in formatting/documenting it.

I did this yesterday.  It turned out that I was listed in two places:
once with my full name and once with the short name that I go by.  I
just removed my short name from the list.

Cheers,
Chris
