						<h2>Sections and Headers</h2>
						<hr />
						<div id="content-body">
							<div class="navigation"><a href="/glyph/book/text_editing/esc_quot.html">Escaping and Quoting &larr;</a><a href="/glyph/book/index.html">Contents</a><a href="/glyph/book/text_editing/section_aliases.html">&rarr; Section Aliases</a></div>
							
	<p>Glyph documents are normally organized as a hierarchical tree of nested chapters, appendixes, sections, etc. To define a section, use the <a href="/glyph/book/macros/macros_structure.html#m_section"><code>section</code></a> macro, like so:</p>

	<pre class="lazy"><span class="line-numbers">   1 </span> section[
<span class="line-numbers">   2 </span>   @title[Section #1]
<span class="line-numbers">   3 </span> Write the section contents here...
<span class="line-numbers">   4 </span>   section[
<span class="line-numbers">   5 </span>     @title[Section #2]
<span class="line-numbers">   6 </span> This section is nested into the previous one.
<span class="line-numbers">   7 </span>   ] --[End of Section #2]
<span class="line-numbers">   8 </span> ] --[End of Section #1]
</pre>

	<p>This example defines two nested sections. If the <code>@title</code> attribute is specified like in this case, it will be converted to a proper <span class="caps">HTML</span> header and it will appear in the Table of Contents (see the <a href="/glyph/book/macros/macros_structure.html#m_toc"><code>toc</code></a> macro).</p>
<p>Note an important difference from <span class="caps">HTML</span>: there is no need for an explicit level for the headers, as it will be determined at runtime when the document is compiled, based on how sections are nested. The previous code snippet (taken as it is), for example, will be transformed into the following <span class="caps">HTML</span> code:</p>

	<pre class="lazy"><span class="line-numbers">   1 </span> <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;</span><span class="MetaTag">div</span> <span class="MetaTag">class</span>=<span class="String"><span class="String">&quot;</span>section<span class="String">&quot;</span></span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
<span class="line-numbers">   2 </span>   <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;</span><span class="MetaTag">h2</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>Section #1<span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;/</span><span class="MetaTag">h2</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
<span class="line-numbers">   3 </span>   <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;</span><span class="MetaTag">p</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>Write the section contents here...<span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;/</span><span class="MetaTag">p</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
<span class="line-numbers">   4 </span>   <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;</span><span class="MetaTag">div</span> <span class="MetaTag">class</span>=<span class="String"><span class="String">&quot;</span>section<span class="String">&quot;</span></span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
<span class="line-numbers">   5 </span>     <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;</span><span class="MetaTag">h3</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>Section #2<span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;/</span><span class="MetaTag">h3</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
<span class="line-numbers">   6 </span>     <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;</span><span class="MetaTag">p</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>This section is nested in the previous one<span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;/</span><span class="MetaTag">p</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
<span class="line-numbers">   7 </span>   <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;/</span><span class="MetaTag">div</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
<span class="line-numbers">   8 </span> <span class="MetaTag"><span class="MetaTag">&lt;/</span><span class="MetaTag">div</span><span class="MetaTag">&gt;</span></span>
</pre>

	<p>By default, in Glyph the first header level is <em>2</em>, so the two headers are rendered as <code>h2</code> and <code>h3</code>, respectively (<code>--[...]</code> macros are <em>comments</em>, therefore they are not included in the final output).</p>
