\title{Create an HTML representation of the given R object, using
internal C-level nodes}
\description{
This generic function and the associated methods are
intended to create an HTML tree that represents the
R object in some intelligent manner.
For example, we represent a vector as a table
and we represent a matrix also as a table.
}
\usage{
toHTML(x, context = NULL)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{ the R object which is to be represented via an HTML tree }
\item{context}{an object which provides context in which the node will
be used. This is currently arbitrary. It may be used, for example,
when creating HTML for R documentation and providing information
about variabes and functions that are available on that page
and so have internal links.
}
}
\details{
It would be nicer if we could pass additional arguments
to control whether the outer/parent layer is created,
e.g. when reusing code for a vector for a row of a matrix.
