I am facing a strange problem with listbox. I need to scrab whois information. I used the following code to get source code of the whois query. It works fine if I use a textbox. But I need to use this for multiple url and therefore need to use lixtbox to loop through url list. Unfortunately when I use listbox1.selecteditem or listbox1.text it does not work. But this same code works with webbrowser.
Dim request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results.jsp?domain=" & listbox1.selecteditem)
request.UserAgent = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)"

If I set a ListBox.Height = ListBox.PreferredHeight when the control is hidden and IntegralHeight = True, then set it visible:
a) Actual Height reduces by typically 3-5 pixels after redraw (but not 1 pixel per item).
b) PreferredHeight does not not appear to give the correct integral of item heights.
Is there a way to make ListBox calculate the correct integral Height before the ListBox is made visible, so it can be correctly pre-positioned from bottom edge?

I'm building this class to download files in parts/sections/segments. In .NET 4.0, I can use this code to specify the range to download from
long startPos = int.MaxValue+1; HttpWebRequest.AddRange(startPos);
and it works because there is a long overload for the AddRange method. When I looked up the .NET 3.5 version, I realised the AddRange() method allows using int only. The possible workaround would be using the AddRange(string, int) or AddRange(string, int, int) methods. Since the class will have to work in .NET 3.5, I'll have to go with the string specification but unfortunately I can't seem to find any sample code that shows how to specify ranges using this procedure in .NET 3.5. Can anyone show be how to do this?As the first code sample I wrote shows, I would like to specify a range of type long instead of int. Using type int allows requesting for byte ranges only up to 2GB but long allows requesting for byte ranges beyong 2GB.
The question therefore is: How do I specify byte ranges of 2GB or higher on HttpWebRequest in .NET 3.5?
Code: Public Function getHtml(ByVal url As String) As String dim objrequest as httpwebrequest dim objresponse as httpwebresponse Try
[Code]...
My problem is: for some url that function takes a long time. So, i just want to cancel the response after a given time. I tried with a timer control but that is not working. What to do? How to modify this code so this function will return result within a given time whether httpwebresponse completed or not?
how to write a httpwebrequest, however i'm unsure of how to write it with a if...statement. I have a file that I need to download, however it ususally doesn't get posted until sometime Tuesday afternoon, so what I need to do is have the program continually check say once about every 5 minutes until the file has been posted and then download it.I'm presumming using an if...statement is the best way to accomplish this, basically if true(file exists) then proceed, else wait 5 minutes and rerun process.
How to successfully log into a DSL-Router (Model: Speedport w504v Type A).I wrote a function usinig HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse. So far this function is not finished and is only for finding out the right login process.[cde]...
use a If then Statement with Httpwebrequest? Let me explain my senario. I have a file that needs to be downloaded from a web site once it is posted. Currently one of our staff manually goes out to the web site multiple times to check to see if the file has been posted, they then download the file, extract it's contents and use some of the info for reports that must be sent out the same day.
I am trying to write a program that goes to a webpage and gets the html and puts it into a mshtml document but I always get an error. I know this example works when the webpage doesn't require Credentials. By the way i'm using vb 2008 express.
Dim theCredential As New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password") Dim Doc As mshtml.IHTMLDocument2
I'm pretty sure that I need to use Httpwebrequest "POST" method for this although Im unsure as to the exact syntax to use. I need to do a xml query to a remote web site, something like <node>" "</node, <price>" "</price> and then collect that data and import it directly into a sql table. Any suggestions or directions?
I have a program that will register you for a certain website using textboxes and stuff but I have an invisible web browser and it just enters the text into the right spots and clicks the button.I was told that I can get rid of the web browser and do the whole thing faster and easier using "HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse".
Dim s As HttpWebRequest Dim username= "username=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode("username") Dim message = "message=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode("message") Dim sep = "&" Dim sb As New StringBuilder()

How do i reponse.write the result to the screen? I get errors like..Value of type 'System.Net.WebResponse' cannot be converted to 'String'.
I have created a httpwebrequest connection to a streaming API after trying a tTCPClient which just never ended up working. My concern is whether my code is correct and that I am actually reading in new data and that the connection is maintained. Initially I had been reading into a buffer and just loaded everything into a file after max size, but figured it would be simpler to read a line, since each entry was being sent delimited by line feeds.
rStream = webrequest.GetResponse().GetResponseStream rStream = New GZipStream(rStream, CompressionMode.Decompress) If rStream.CanRead then
[code]....
It looks like I am continuously reading and not sure if I am reading redundant data here. Also another question is that if I were to use a thread to appendToFile, would that maintain the connection to the stream?
I have a problem when trying to send a POST request. The sending method looks like this:
Public Sub SendXML(ByVal file As String) Dim reader As New StreamReader(file) Dim data As String = reader.ReadToEnd()
[Code]....
Now looking at this I suspected that it was due to the fact that the server does not accept POST messages. But some other reading suggests that the the URI [URL] has been generated with a proxy and should be /Request so the line should read POST /Request HTTP/1.1
So what would be the common reason for this? And if it is a proxy problem, how is it sorted?
As asked below, I have created a new question for the more specific request. Changing absolute URI to relative in HTTP POST header

Is there any way to download only a part of a web-page? What I have is a program that downloads periodically (every 5 sec) a web-page and displays some real time information. So I would like to minimize the bandwidth as much as posible.
I have seen that many download managers have the ability to resume a download, so they actually have the ability to start from somwhere in the midle. So can I do that with a single web-page and without messing with the sockets if posible?
I understand the basics of httpwebrequest and I'm not looking for any answers on web browsers. My previous method was done using webbrowsers but because of the lack of speed I have transferred over to httpwebrequest to speed up the process.
I have an id of an element that I would like to grab and use in an httpwebrequest but not sure where I would start with that.
When I try this code, Content Length is always -1.
Dim Request As HttpWebRequest = DirectCast(WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com"), HttpWebRequest) Dim Response As HttpWebResponse = Request.GetResponse()
I am using an httpWebRequest in my windows app to download files from a webserver (sURL), to a local folder (fileDestination) as such: Public Function DownloadFile(ByVal sURL As String, _ ByVal fileDestination As String, _ ByVal WebRequestType As String) As Boolean Dim URLReq As HttpWebRequest Dim URLRes As HttpWebResponse [Code] .....
This works fine for the first few files. But then it starts giving the error: "operation has timed out" on the URLReq.GetResponse line.
Dim request As HttpWebRequest = DirectCast(HttpWebRequest.Create(url), HttpWebRequest) Using stream As System.IO.Stream = request.GetResponse().GetResponseStream()
