'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class NavigationService

public sealed class NavigationService

The NavigationService type exposes the following members.

Properties

	Name	Description
	CanGoBack	Gets a value that indicates whether there is at least one entry in the back navigation history.
	CanGoForward	Gets a value that indicates whether there is at least one entry in the forward navigation history.
	CurrentSource	Gets the uniform resource identifier (URI) of the content that is currently displayed.
	Source	Gets or sets the uniform resource identifier (URI) of the current content or the content that is being navigated to.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	GoBack	Navigates to the most recent entry in the back navigation history, or throws an exception if no entry exists in back navigation.
	GoForward	Navigates to the most recent entry in the forward navigation history, or throws an exception if no entry exists in forward navigation.
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Navigate	Navigates to the content specified by the uniform resource identifier (URI).
	Refresh	Reloads the current page.
	StopLoading	Stops asynchronous navigations that have not yet been processed.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Top

Events

	Name	Description
	FragmentNavigation	Occurs when navigation to a content fragment begins.
	Navigated	Occurs when the content that is being navigated to has been found and is available.
	Navigating	Occurs when a new navigation is requested.
	NavigationFailed	Occurs when an error is encountered while navigating to the requested content.
	NavigationStopped	Occurs when the StopLoading method is called, or when a new navigation is requested while the current navigation is in progress.

Remarks

You use the NavigationService class from within a Silverlight page. It enables you to access the navigation service used by the hosting frame and launch new navigation requests. You can retrieve the navigation service through the NavigationService property of the Page class.

When navigating from within the frame, you use the navigation methods on the frame. The Frame class contains many of the same methods and properties as the NavigationService class.

Examples

The following example shows a Silverlight page that retrieves data from a data service and displays that data. The page displays information about a product based on a value in the query string. The OnNavigatedTo method is overridden to obtain a query string value from the NavigationContext object. The NavigationService object for this page is accessed to determine if forward and back navigation is available.
