WebBrowser, dynamic content and history
My wtl application uses an html view window as its main view. It should handle static html files and dynamic content. To load a static page I simply navigate to its url on disk and when I have to use dynamic content, I handle the OnBeforeNavigate2 event and inject some html content to it. I have a problem when trying to use the GoBack() and GoForward() functions since I've canceled the original event (in OnBeforeNavigate2) and the browser didn't add the url into history. How can I add the url manually to the history list of the navigation?

I can't inject it with OnDocumentComplete because I don't want IE to start and search the url using the default search method. I know there is an interface (ITravelLogStg) to handle the history list, but I can't find it anywhere (I have the latest platform SDK)

I see it only supports IE 5.5. Can't I do something similar with IE 5.01?
Why bother? Everyone has upgraded to 5.5 or 6 by now.

The window.history object does not expose a collection, so there may not be a way to add anything. As a first suggestion, you could avoid canceling the OnBeforeNavigate2 and inject the HTML into the DOM after OnDocumentComplete (or whatever). I'll try a fe things and see if that is feasible...
