Get the Url of a Hyperlink when the Mouse moves Over a TWebBrowser Document

The TWebBrowser Delphi component provides access to the Web browser functionality from your Delphi applications.

In most situations you use the TWebBrowser to display HTML documents to the user - thus creating your own version of the (Internet Explorer) Web browser. Note that the TWebBrowser can also display Word documents, for example.

A very nice feature of a Browser is to display link information, for example, in the status bar, when the mouse hovers over a link in a document.

The TWebBrowser does not expose an event like "OnMouseMove". Even if such an event would exist it would be fired for the TWebBrowser component - NOT for the document being displayed inside the TWebBrowser.

In order to provide such information (and much more, as you will see in a moment) in your Delphi application using the TWebBrowser component, a technique called "events sinking" must be implemeted.

WebBrowser Event Sink

To navigate to a web page using the TWebBrowser component you call the  Navigate  method. The  Document  property of the TWebBrowser returns an  IHTMLDocument2  value (for web documents). This interface is used to retrieve information about a document, to examine and modify the HTML elements and text within the document, and to process related events.

To get the "href" attribute (link) of an "a" tag inside a document, while the mouse hovers over a document, you need to react on the "onmousemove" event of the IHTMLDocument2.

Here are the steps to sink events for the currently loaded document:

1. Sink the WebBrowser control's events in the DocumentComplete event raised by the TWebBrowser. This event is fired when the document is fully loaded into the Web Browser.
2. Inside DocumentComplete, retrieve the WebBrowser's document object and sink the HtmlDocumentEvents interface.
3. Handle the event you are interested in.
4. Clear the sink in the in BeforeNavigate2 - that is when the new document is loaded in the Web Browser.
