When to use HTML Heading Outline Extractor

Inspect the heading structure of a pasted page before publishing an article or reviewing a template. The output lists heading levels, text and IDs in document order, with observations about missing H1 elements, multiple H1 elements and jumps over intermediate levels. It helps reveal a document outline that is hard to notice when headings are styled to look similar.

How to interpret the result

The analysis uses the supplied HTML only and never fetches a page or executes scripts. It includes headings present in the markup even if external CSS would hide them, and it does not inspect shadow roots or generated content. A skipped level is a review prompt rather than an automatic accessibility failure. Heading structure is one part of a usable document and does not predict search ranking or replace an accessibility audit.

Example input

<main><h1>Product guide</h1><h2>Setup</h2><h4>Troubleshooting</h4></main>
