Description

This script adds a pagelist format fmt=hoverindex, which displays a pagelist as a horizontal row of alphabetical index letters, showing the alphabetical pagelist subsections only when hovering the mouse pointer over the index letters. The pages are sorted by title and displayed by title.

Copy Attach:abchoverindex.php Δ to cookbook/ folder and add to config.php

include_once("$FarmD/cookbook/abchoverindex.php");

This recipe is based on DictIndex? and LinkCSSToolTip, combining an alphabetical pagelist index (but sorted and displayed by page titles, not names) and css to display each pagelist subsection when hovering with the mouse over the index letter.

Example markup (not yet activated on this page): 

(:pagelist group=PmWiki list=normal fmt=hoverindex:)
