Re: Heading without contents

On the other hand, you might have an H1 on one page to introduce a chapter and the chapter content begins on the next page. I've seen this frequently in reports and publications. The heading is on a page of its own and the content begins on the next page. The content can start with a paragraph or another heading/H2.

I'm reading a technical manual at the moment that is structured this way.

It depends on the design of the publication and that each chapter title is on its own page. There would be a consistency to the layout/structure of the publication.

As someone using adaptive technology, a screen reader, I would be able to move from that heading 1 to the next piece of content easily in the document.

Cheers, Karen
