# HTMLDocument.addHeading(3kaya)

Add a heading

## NAME

HTMLDocument::addHeading - Add a heading

## SYNOPSIS

**ElementTree addHeading(** *ElementTree parent, Int headinglevel, String initialtext=createString(0)* **)**

## ARGUMENTS

**parent** The parent element

**headinglevel** The level of heading (1-6)

**initialtext** Optionally, any initial text the element should contain

## DESCRIPTION

Add a heading to the end of the specified element. Heading levels go from 1 to 6, and form a document outline - there should generally be one level 1 heading in the document, with level 2 headings below that, level 3 headings below the level 2 headings, and so on. In practice, headings less important than level 4 are very rarely used.
