• Keys (0,1,2,3,4) - header index number. Keys (1,2 subItems) - intermediate empty headers;
• title - title of the content item;
• link - anchor link. If text have few same headers links of them will be <link>-<number> (for example: link-1, link-2, link-3).

//Add ID attribute to the headers. Need for anchors.
$tableContents->headerLinks($text)
