Just to properly resolve this thread, I found the solution to my question.
:)
Basically, all that needed to be done was to override the tocList function
found in Linker.php. The Linker class is the parent class of Skin, which is
the parent class of SkinTemplate, which is the parent class of any custom
skin you create.
So to grab the TOC, all I had to do was override the tocList function to 1)
save the generated TOC and 2) return nothing so no TOC is printed with the
body content.
class SkinMyCustomSkin extends SkinTemplate
{
var $skinname = 'MyCustomSkin',
$stylename = 'MyCustomSkin',
$template = 'MyCustomSkinTemplate',
$useHeadElement = false;
function tocList($toc) {
$this->savedTOC = parent::tocList($toc);
return "";
}
}
Now I can place the TOC where ever I want by simply "print
$this->skin->savedTOC;"
