.net - Webbrowser Control Does Not Refresh Htmltext
Feb 6, 2012
I am developing a google maps ap, and want to refresh the map with new detail on demand. The initial problem offcourse was that the webbrowser control does not reflect the changes (still keeps the original htmltext) and new document text and refresh. I understand the document text is set once, and cant be changed... apparently.
All the collected user knowledge on this problem, only get me half way. I can get the page refreshed using some of the techniques above, but it then gives me a script error and an error 53, which both has no details or origins.. just blank errors.... after clicking through their error windows, my page refreshes.P.S. I don't know if my javascript events that are bound to the webbrowser control causes the errors. Some have suggested that the errors are due to the document loading without all its references being closed/open...
I want to make a program in Visual Studio 2008 in Visual Basic. It involves a web browser and I want to make it auto refresh and allow people to choose the time period in which they want to auto refresh. It won't take user input but I have checkboxes that are preset. I think this may be possible using a timer and the WebBrowser1.Refresh() method. If I am mistaken, please correct me and tell me how to do this.
There is PreviewKeyDown but I don't know how to prevent it from passing the keypress to the browser using that method & WebBrowserShortcutsEnabled will disable them but not allow other stuff like Control+C,Control+V and even the delete key in a textbox wont function as well as technically any F keys will not be passed to the flash I have running in the web browser control so the reason for disabling was made moot because the keys still aren't usable in the flash game either because they don't function at all anymore or it has an action already(F5-refresh)How do I disable it without stopping it from being used by the underlying webpage - flash in this example....
Return returns execution to it so it ends up calling keydown like normal, there is no actual keydown event for the webbrowser control or id use that....I cant block navigation because a refresh appears to not call any of the navigation stuff....End stops execution of the whole program it seems, not just stopping that part of code in its tracks...Stop just pauses the program in the debugger....Exit has the same result as return does....
Is there no way to either use PreviewKeyDown to not return execution to the caller....or maybe some kind of await procedure(visual Studio 2011 & its await procedures/async procedures) or something which will never finish... them using it a lot(the F5 key) wont use a lot of cpu while it waits for something that would never happen....Or just any other method which could make this work how I need it....
I am writing an ap that monitors a website for changes. The website is for reserving campsites and I need to know when they change the date we can book a reservation. The date can change at midnight or any time during the day. It is completely random.I start the program launching a webbrowser with the URL. I have an inputboxbutton that prompts for the text to track for change. You paste the text in there and then the ap is supposed to wait for x minutes then refresh.I have a refresh button that works perfectly. Here is the code for it:
Private Sub Button_Refresh_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button_Refresh.Click WebBrowser1.Refresh()
I am a complete noob at programming, so I need all the help I can get with my new program.I am building a web-browser which is linked to one webpage. The content of this page is constantly changing, so I need the web-browser to auto-refresh after 2 minutes. But if it refreshes while NOT connected to the Internet, the browser will show an error message, so that is why I have build in an Internet check. This check is working. The browser also have to be in the same place at the screen every time the software is loaded. This code is also working.
But the timer and the refresh is bugging me. I cannot get it to work. The code is not responding.
I'm working on a webcrawler in VB.net, and using the System.Forms.WebBrowser object for handling navigation on sites that use javascript or form posts, but I'm having a problem. When I navigate backwards (WebBrowser.GoBack()) to a page that was loaded with a form post, the page has expired and I have to do a refresh to resend the request. When I call a refresh (WebBrowser.Refresh()), a dialog box pops up to confirm. Is there a way I can get around this modal dialog in code?
I have a VB.NET application and a timer that refreshes the webbrowser every 5 seconds on the application. Now it works 100% fine with Windows Vista. It also works fine on another computer that has Windows XP. But when i come to run this application on my server that has Windows XP installed the application will just not refresh. Is there anything that i can do to code it to FORCE refresh the browser every 5 seconds?
My program has multiple webbrowser objects, each one in a different tab. How would i go about setting up a button to refresh only the webbrowser on the active tab?
I have a VB.net form which has two webpages embedded. The webpages have a 5 second auto refresh built into the HTML header as the information is constantly changing.
The problem I have is when I pull up a secondary form, I lose focus to the 'Main' form everytime the webpage refreshes.
Is there any way to stop the webpages autorefreshing in the form and I will build in a refresh command into a timer I already have in place and then I can start and stop the refresh at will.
Unfortunatly I cannot amend the source code of the HTML as this is required for a different process elsewhere.
I have an isue, may be its simple. but i am not able to rectify this. Here it goes. I have a form to display data from database.
The form contains Tab control with 3 tabs,it has some text boxes, combo boxes and date pickers.I retrieved data from database in to data-set (ds) using a data-adapter (da) then assigned it to a dataview (dv)
I am writing a few web based apps which will require a webbrowser extension. I have already used the IE webbrowser control that uses the trident web rendering engine. I believe this is MSHTML.DLL? Anyway, some of the users of my programs have complained of a few things. Particularily,
1. It seems to be a slow browser, at least compared to other rendering engines out there (webkit and gecko are 2 known ones).
2. On the developer side, it seems to be low in features. The features are sufficient in most cases, but there are some "special" things that I need.
3. It has VERY low HTML (and especially HTML5) compliance.
My question is, how much work would it take to use a different engine (such as webkit .net, which I HAVE heard of) and be able to distribute it easily. Or, if you guys feel ambitious, we could try writing a brand new engine ourselves. I know how big of a job it is, and frankly, I have no clue where to begin. I would just like your thoughts and opinions on the matter.
i have created an app to load an access database into a datagridview, which contains web urls. When button is clicked it webbrowser1 navigates to each url and each webpages document.inertext is put into textbox. This all work fine but after a while the webbrowser navigation becomes increasingly slower.
For Each RW As DataGridViewRow In Me.DataGridView1.SelectedRows '''''''''''#######cell values into strings ########'''''''''''''' If RW.Selected = True Then Dim domain As String
Ive tried to edit option on the webbrowser control, example javascript enable/disable. but found out that it uses IE's option and cannot be changed.So my question is: Is there a way to do a "webbrowser" without using the WEbbrowser control that is based on internetexplorer? If it is, can i change option example flash and so on?
Using ASP.NET and VB.NET code behind, I have the following code: Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim I As Integer = 0 For I = 0 To 10 ListBox1.Items.Add(I) ListBox1.DataBind() System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(300) Next End Sub The intended output of the code is to update the listbox1 control at each iteration, but what really happens is it updates the listbox1 control after the entire loop finishes..Is there a way to update the listbox1 control as its intended by the code logic?
I have a Visual Basic .NET application that calls an Oracle Stored Procedure. This stored procedure does a lot of processing and can take up to an hour to complete. While this is running, if the user moves to another application say Microsoft word, then eventually returns to the VB window to see if it completed the window is often blank (just a white background).
I have several custom controls inside my project, just added a new class and then inherit the original control. For example i have a Custom DataGridView Control (CustDGV), that defines several properties in the constructor of the control.Now i have one problem and one issue, the problem, if i change the CustDGV i don't know why, the forms that are using the control doesn't update the changes... The only way it's removing and adding it again.. not very useful when i have several event's already defined for the dgv.How do i force the form to update the control?The issue it's that some of the properties doesn't get applied, for example i set the column header height and the disable resizing in the constructor, but if i run the code this two properties doesn't get applied, i need to define them in the form where i use the control to get the results that i expect..The order of the properties in the constructor? The properties in the properties window override the constructor ones?
I have a User Control which renders a simple drop downList into the page.By default, only certain values are returned depending on User Details, but the user may request a "full" list.I'd like this full list to be generated by pressing a reload button.Being new to .NET I am struggling to get this to work and not really understand the results I get when Googling or finding stuff on this site. Is Classic ASP I'd have made a page that renders this and called it using jQuery
[Code]...
I've found this link: [URL]..Using-jQuery but am unsure exactly what it is suggesting, mainly I think, because I use VB and don't completely understand how to convert that C# code there.Using .NET 2.0, jQuery and VB, does anyone have any suggestions on the simplest way to accomplish this?
I've in my app many self created custom controls (not as a real active x control, but a simple modified class). In this case I'm writing about a groupbox. I've placed many of them on different forms. But now, I want to change the backcolor of this controls. I change the backcolor in the class, rebuild the project, and the backcolor didn't change. Why? I don't want to place the groupbox again, it would be too much work. It should be a chance to do this whithout placing the groupboxes again.
I am using AjaxToolJit Tab Container and the problem is when i refreshes the page the default tab is set to 0 but i was in 4th tab when i refreshed the page.AutoPostBack=true
for a while but when i used UpdatePanel in the same page causes the same problem again.
I have a semi-transparent custom control in vb2005 - works fine, except I can't get it to update/refresh correctly. If I update the custom parameter _backgroundColor, the control appears to be overpainted - e.g. each attempt to update the colour of the control overpaints the existing colour - until it becomes a solid block of colour. However, forcing a refresh of the form makes the control display the correct colour. Any ideas? I don't want to have to repaint the form just to get this control to render correctly. Code for the custom control is below.
I have a regular application form with a WebBrowser control.I have strung together a .htm file (from a regular text file) which I then assign to the WebBrowser control. In the html file, I have filenames mentioned.I am trying to string together the html in such a way as to give a clickable link or button that will parse into html and open the corresponding file in another WebBrowser control in VB.I have tried using VBScript and JavaScript to put a button in the html.As long as the function or sub I call is also in the same html document, it works, but I really need to transfer the control back into visual basic where I can do the heavy lifting I need to.can I just not do this as a regular VB application? Any way to do it without adding the complication of requiring ActiveX?
Lets say i label "label1" , and 2 buttons named "button1" and "btnRefresh " [code]So , when user press the button 1 , the text will change. But what should i put inside btnRefresh to reload the forms ? and display the default label.text = "Form Load" ???
I have a webbrowser control, where I show images (bmp files, that the program creates), and I want to add some UserControls to setup the images (as showing layers, or choosing colors to display). Is easy to do appropiate UserControls on VB.NET, and I know almost nothing about HTML, so, I would like to add standard VB.NET UserControls near the images.
