Description Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2009-07-02 09:49:42 UTC 
Replace OpenOffice.org specific hyperlinks used in table of content (e.g.
"#1.1.Heading on outline level 2|outline") by ODF (versions: 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2
cd02) conforming ones - see definition of ODF attribute xlink:href for ODF
element <text:a>.
To achieve this each heading for which a corresponding entry in the table of
contents is created is bookmarked by an bookmark. This bookmark will be the
target of the table of content entry hyperlink.
Thus, accessibility tools by its own are able to resolve the hyperlinks given in
the actual content of the table of content.
The bookmarks which are used for this purpose are the same which are used for
direct cross referencing of headings - see issue 25072 and its specification
found at
http://specs.openoffice.org/writer/numbering/Direct_Cross_References_to_Headings_and_Numberings.odt

adding keyword accessibility
Comment 2 malte_timmermann 2009-07-17 18:12:18 UTC 
Some background information on this task: 

The current implementation writes TOCs in ODF documents in a way that it's not
usable for other ODF applications.

This is problematic especially for assistive technologies, which would need to
implement OOo's logic to understand the links in the TOC.

It also hinders conversion tools to create useful output. 
TOCs in ODF documents converted to HTML don't work in a browser (inaccessible
HTML), and tools like an ODF to DAISY DTBOOK converter also can't make use of
the TOC.

This issues was discussed some time ago in the OASIS ODF Accessibility SC.

We will add some recommendations to the ODF Accessibility guidelines, that TOC's
should be done via standard hyperlinks or XML ids.

fixed in cws sw32a11y01 - changed file:
/sw/source/core/tox/txmsrt.cxx, rev. 274705
Comment 4 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2009-08-11 13:50:02 UTC 
OD->ES: Checked in internal installation set of cws sw32a11y01 - please verify.

To test, if the hyperlinks in the table of content conform to ODF you can export
a corresponding text document to HTML, open this HTML document in a browser and
check, if the hyperlinks work.
