related-links
The related information links of a topic (related-links element) are stored in a special section following the body of the topic. After a topic is processed into its final output form, the related links are usually displayed at the end of the topic, although some Web-based help systems might display them in a separate navigation frame.
Links specified within the related-links element are typically displayed together with links generated based on a map context.
The following lists contains processing expectations for related link element:
1. Links within a linklist element appear in the order defined, while those outside of a linklist might be sorted and displayed in a different order or location (based upon their role, target, importance, or other qualifiers).
2. PDF or print-oriented output typically ignores hierarchical links such as those with roles of ancestor, parent, child, descendant, next, previous, or sibling, although this behavior is not required.
