Technical Exegesis...
Navigates forward one step in the HTMLView control's browsing history. Searches webBrowserMap for htmlViewID. If found, gets IWebBrowser2* interface. Calls pBrowser->GoForward() to navigate to next page in history stack. No return value.
This function mimics browser's forward button functionality. Navigation history is maintained internally by IWebBrowser2 control. GoForward() navigates to next entry in history stack (if exists).

This function mimics browser's forward button functionality. Navigation history is maintained internally by IWebBrowser2 control. GoForward() navigates to next entry in history stack (if exists). Only available after using bgiHTMLGoBack - moves forward through previously visited pages. If at end of history (no forward page), GoForward() silently does nothing (no error). Forward history is cleared when navigating to new URL from middle of history stack. GoForward() is asynchronous - returns before navigation completes. Use bgiGetHTMLURL to verify current location after forward navigation. Common pattern: implement back/forward UI buttons, enable/disable forward based on history state. Pair with bgiHTMLGoBack for full navigation control.
