摘要 According to one embodiment a method and apparatus for displaying the path of a computer program error as a sequence of hypertext documents in a computer system having a display is disclosed. The method includes displaying a first function in the control-flow path of the error as text in a first region on the display. Subsequently, a first hypertext link marker located within the first function, and associated with a second function called by the first and also lying on the error's control-flow path is selected. Thereafter, the second function's text associated with the first link marker is displayed in a second region. The second region is positioned in the first region such that the text of the first document is not obscured. The second region includes a first tab area that surrounds the first link maker after it is selected. According to a further embodiment, the method also includes selecting a second hypertext link marker located within the second function, corresponding to a third function called by the second and lying on the error's control-flow path.
