supressing table of contents in pander package

Question

This is a question about the R packager "pander" I am using the live report generation feature of pander. I find this a useful, minimal way to get selected R results into a readable and sharable document. Whenever it exports the report to an html file, it has a "Table of contents" link as a left panel. It links to the pander website and this could be a distraction with reports. Is there some pander option to not have this "Table of contents" panel? Thank you, jg

You can specify your own options (e.g. a custom HTML template and CSS stylesheet) and even suppress the footer if you wish. Quick demo without the automatically added "Table of contents" panel:

x <- Pandoc$new()
x$add(head(iris))
x$format <- 'html'
x$export(footer = FALSE, options = '-s')
