Description :

HTMLAPIReference is the complete reference of converted HTML result. To understand this data structure more clearly, we will set an example here.
Suppose there exist a section with a database named picture.nsf. The section's format is like below:
Below is a section :

Below is a section :
1. section part 1
2. section part 2
After the HTML tranlation, the HTML code transformed from the section is like below :

<a name ="_Section1"></a>
<a href="/picture.nsf/0/64a510cea327672d48257146001bfdac?OpenDocument&ExpandSection=-1#_Section1" target="_self">
<img height="16" width="16" src='/icons/collapse.gif' border="0" alt="Hide details for Below is a section:">
</a>
Below is a section:
<ul>
1. section part 1<br>
2. section part 2<br>
</ul>

To explain the HTMLAPIReference data structure more clearly, we will explain it with below bitmap:




1 The reference Type is HTMLAPI_REF_HREF (RefType)
2 The URL command is OpenDocument (CommandId)
3 Reference Text (pRefText)
4 The number of HTMLAPI_URLTargetComponent within this HTMLAPIReference is 2
5,6,7 The first HTMLAPI_URLTargetComponent's detailed information
8,9 The second HTMLAPI_URLTargetComponent's detailed information
10 The URL command's Argument is ExpandSection
11 The value of the URL command's Argument is -1
