IHlinkBrowseContext

The IHlinkBrowseContext interface enables a COM object to define and manage the browsing context for an ActiveX hyperlink application.

A hyperlink browse context keeps track of the order in which the object/documents (perhaps belonging to different processes) have been visited and chains them together into a navigation stack. The context also keeps track of enabling or disabling buttons such as Go Forward or Go Back for each entry in the navigation stack. In addition, the context maintains window positioning information for hyperlink targets so that a hyperlink application can provide a seamless user interface.

Browse context objects are not required for hyperlink navigation. HlinkSimpleNavigateToString and HlinkSimpleNavigateToMoniker provide examples of navigation between hyperlink containers and hyperlink targets that do not use a browsing context.

IHlinkBrowseContext provides methods that maintain the hyperlink navigation stack and keep track of window position information.
