In spite of major shortcomings in the built-in HTMLViewer, I'm looking  
for alternatives. The MBS plugin has me covered on the Mac, as well as  
some helpful Cocoa code posted here. So the Mac is not my issue. My  
issue is Windows.

Are there declares that can be made (like on the Mac) to handle the  
Back and Forward functions on Windows? If there are not, is there an  
alternative that can provide me a solution?

My project is a very small, almost feature-less web browser. I am  
working on an internal company website for our chain of 13 Subway  
Restaurants. I want to be able to provide access to this on our cash  
registers, without opening the entire entire to our entire staff of  
mostly high school students. So I'm building a mini-browser that  
doesn't even have a url field - but the Back and Forward features are  
something this tool MUST have in order to work with our vendors  
websites.

I'm getting very frustrated, personally. I find that I can never  
complete a project due to some dumb bug, or incomplete feature. Even  
something this simple, looks like I may not be able to achieve in  
REALbasic, forcing me to learn a new tool and language. This is why I  
haven't renewed in a while...
