      Description

      On 'Reflections on the new Course "Layout" for 2.3+' (http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=208789), Itamar Tzadok stated how he had in effect reinstated the 'Jump to' section menu that was available in previous versions. It was received with enthusiasm and a desire for it to return.

      I have been able to adapt '/course/format/renderer.php' to utilise the code that was originally in '/course/format/topics/format.php' in Moodle 2.2 to provide a Moodle 2.3 version.
