.net - Close A Windows Form From A Link In A WebBrowser Control?
Apr 6, 2010
I have a WebBrowser control in my VB.NET application that loads a PHP page inside it. On the PHP page I have a 'Log Out' hyperlink. What I'm trying to do is close the VB.NET form when that hyperlink is clicked.
how can i make my webbrowser open up a new link in my same webbrowser or in another form? basically what im saying is i dont want it opening links in internet explorer.
I am writing a windows form application, where I want to have a WebBrowser control, and in that control, I want to show a Google map programmatically generated (I mean, not just specify a URL to the browser).
I have implemented webbrowser control in my windows application. I have some functions inthe class file. i want to use those functions from the webpage which is displayed in my windows app through webbrowser control..For example say... I have an standalone windows software. Which has a webbrowser control in the some form. Now i would like to create a webpage that can be displayed in the webbrowser control in win app which has some buttons and textboxes. When i click on button in the webpage it should get the version number of that software. I have some other functions that are in the class file aswell.. but dont no how to call those functions from that webpage when a button is clicked or something like that.
How can I simulate a click on website loaded in WebBrowser control? Note that the link don't have id element, so the code must recognize it with the anchor text or href element.
I Hav a WebBrowser Control In my Application , Where i hav loaded my own designed HTML Page.Now i hav several buttons in that HTML. So i want to get the Button's innerHTML When ever that Button is clicked.
im trying to make my program click an link on the webbrowser control. The link changes everytime.Basically its an email and when opened in webbrowser its a google account versidication email.

Every time I click on download file link, instead of the internet explorer download file dialog to come up, show my second form and in it's textbox place the download link. I have been searching for this for a long time.
I have searched the forums a bit in search of ways to find out how to prevent Internet Explorer to open when you click on a new window link in a WebBrowser control. I came across a topic with this code:
I have another question (and anticipate that I will have about two more before I'm done with my class project). Here is my issue (and I'll copy and paste my code for clarification). I need to link up the control from the form on either side of the current form that I'm working on so that if I click on the buttons that I'm titling previous and next that I can click on the proper button and either go directly to the previous form or the next form. I was successful in doing this for two earlier forms on this project (with some direction from a couple of helpful people on this forum before), but for some reason, no matter what I details I use the controls do not connect to the previous and next forms.

When a button is clicked i am creating HTML that will be displayed in the WebBrowser1 control. With this HTML are several links to other pages. Is it possible that when one of these links is clicked, that WebBrowser2 navigates to the page instead of WebBrowser1?
I want to open a web page that was created by me, by passing parameters to that web link,I try to open it like this:
Dim aaa As String = String.Format _ ("C:Documents and SettingsuserDesktopweb site 1HRMSExport1.aspx", _ "?_mchno={0}&_batch={1}&_Points={2}&_ovrpt={3}&_gstrID={4}& _
I have a problem with WebBrowser control and cookies.First of all what happens when one navigates in a normal Web browser (IE9 in my case): open page
I enter my username / password,
I leave the checkbox "Stay signed in" unchecked and click "Sign in",
IE9 opens my GMail page with all my mails listed. That is OK.
1.2. At the top of GMail page there are a lot of links like "Calendar", "Documents", etc.
When I click the "Documents" link, my documents page is opened in a separate tab in IE9. No additional login information as name / psw is asked. This is fine too.Now, what happens when I repeat all that in WebBrowser control (I have created a very simple VB.NET application with single WebBrowser control in it).
2.1. In form load event the following code is executed:
Private Sub MyForm_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Me.MyWebBrowser.Navigate("http://www.gmail.com") End Sub
2.2. I enter my GMail login information (name and psw) in WebBrowser control,
2.3. When I click the "Documents" link, a new instance of IE9 is opened,
2.4. Instead of showing a list of my documents, Google asks me to login again in an IE9 window. Why? Why I have to enter my credentials again?I think there is something wrong with cookies and they are not set correctly in a step 2.2.
I created a new windows form application using VB 2010. I added no controls to the form. This is right "out of the box" app created by the VB windows form app wizard. I next added a FormClosed event handler. The handler gets called whenever I click the "x" on the form.Later I needed to close the form programatically in response to an event from an automation client. So I did something apparently farily dumb. I called "Me.Close()" Nothing happens. The form stays up on the screen. My FormClosed event handler is NOT called.The MSDN entry for "Close" doesn't give me a clue as to why this call doesn't work. Indeed, it seems to imply it should work.So I added a couple of lines of code after calling "Close()" since when I stepped across that line of code it appears that no other code would execute. Sure enough, as soon as I step over the call to Close(), I cannot step through any other lines of code.
Then I found another piece of form code while searching around and I found the code had what appeared to be an odd keyword just dangling in the code. The keyword, colored by the IDE as a VB keyword?So I typed "End" into my method and intellisense shows me "End Statement. Stops execution immediately". And it does. But is my FormClosed event handler called. No.I added "Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form" to see if that had any effect. No change.So how does a form close itself programatically?
I am facing one issue in my VB.net application. In my application I want to disable the close button in all my windows. I am doing this by following code. But the real issue is while I am minimized and maximized the window the close button is getting enabled to the end user. How to permanently disable the Close window.
Public Class CloseButton Private Declare Function GetSystemMenu Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Integer, ByVal revert As Integer) As Integer
My form having the TitleBar , buttons are Minimize, Maximize, Close. I run the application if i click the Close button the window was closing. But i need not only for closing window i want to close the Database connection also. B`se if i close this window the debugging is not closing. The database is not close properly.
I am doing a project which required the website application that I have created to be linking to the window form. As what I know is in the webform to webform, the command is "response.redirect("")" whereas for the window form to window form is "me.show form1.hide". So that is what I know.
I have a vb windows application with 2 forms, where form2 is called from form1 using form2.showdialog()
I added a web browser control to form2, and I'm getting the following error at the point where form2 is called:
Current thread must be set to single thread apartment (STA) mode before OLE calls can be made. Ensure that your Main function has STAThreadAttribute marked on it.
I tried: 1) adding STAThread() to the form_load()
2) I added a module to my application, and created a sub main(), with the STAThread attribute applied to it
I am trying to write a program that will tell my grandmother whether the internet is live or not. I know, I know, She just doesn't get it. So I want to create a program to load google.com or something and all I want the program to do is tell her whether the site was found or not. Is there a way to do this with the WebBrowser control?
I can't seem to find a way to use the IE9 rendering engine in the WebBrowser control, instead of the IE7 rendering engine, using Visual Studio 2010 and Windows Forms.
I have a project that I would like to add a URL link and an email link to in the Help/About dialog. How can I do this? Is it possible to add HTML code to a VB project? This is not a Web application.
XP WEBBROWSER-CONTROL: brings up PDF embedded in webbrowser control, as desired.XP IE7: Behaves the same if you manually navigate to URL, as desired.VISTA WEBBROWSER-CONTROL: brings up PDF by separately launching Acrobat, won't embed in webbrowser control. Not desired.Vista IE7: embeds PDF properly if you navigate to same URL, as desired.I am using Acrobat 9, where there is a preference setting under Internet to bring up PDF embedded in browser -- works fine directly in IE7, but not in webbrowser control.
