Yet much (I would even suggest most) HTML documentation does not take much advantage of the HTML format. It is rare for it to contain many hyperlinks within the text. Often it is formatted more like a book with each page just having previous, next, up and contents links at top and/or bottom with few, if any, hyperlinks in the text.
