<br />
== Purpose ==<br />
{{TOC left}}<br />
{{tl|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} forces the auto-generated "Table of Contents" for an article to appear in a table that is floated to the left side of the page (as seen left), in order to improve article layout.<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
Insert <code>&#123;&#123;TOC left&#125;&#125;</code> at the point in the article where you want the top of the Table of Contents box to appear. Use with {{tl|-}} or {{tl|clear}} to prevent images collisions. See [[John Vanbrugh]] for a live example.<br />
<br />
== Cautions ==<br />
Do not use this template to just force word wrap around the TOC, as this is inappropriate method of achieving this. Instead add a CSS class to your current skin's .css file, which will apply site wide. Go to [[Special:Mypage/skin.css]], which redirects to your current [[WP:SKIN|skin]]'s CSS file.<br />
<br />
Do not place this template so that the TOC aligns with a large image or infobox; this breaks the layout on narrow screens (even users with screens as wide as 1024px wide can have problems).<br />
Also, a TOC that crosses a section division is probably a poor idea, if that can be avoided.<br />
<br />
Unless the section in which the {{tl|TOC left}} is placed is long enough, the result may well be undesirable. Note particularly that if the TOC is floated left of a bulleted list, the bullets will be hidden.<br />
<br />
It should only be used in cases where the TOC gets in the way of other content or is detrimental to the layout of the page; it should ''not'' simply be used for aesthetics since it tampers with the standard appearance of articles. See [[Help:Section#Floating the TOC]] for further guidelines.<br />
