table of contents

I cannot find any provision in HTML 4 for
the automatic generation of a table of
contents (i.e., a nested list---with controllable
depth---of the contents of the header elements).
Is there such? (I've been told it exists in SGML.)

If not, how is this basic component of
document preparation supposed to be
handled?

Naively,
Alan Isaac
