* <P>The AccessibleHypertext class is the base class for all
* classes that present hypertext information on the display. This class
* provides the standard mechanism for an assistive technology to access
* that text via its content, attributes, and spatial location.
* It also provides standard mechanisms for manipulating hyperlinks.
* Applications can determine if an object supports the AccessibleHypertext
* interface by first obtaining its AccessibleContext (see {@link Accessible})
* and then calling the {@link AccessibleContext#getAccessibleText}
* method of AccessibleContext. If the return value is a class which extends
* AccessibleHypertext, then that object supports AccessibleHypertext.
