Advanced Webbrowser - How To Add Bookmarks To A Book Mark Options Bar
Apr 19, 2010
I'm making a webbrowser for my website and I'm short on codes. I don't know many codes, usually finding them on the net through tutorials however I can't find ones for this. If anyone knows where I can find books online that would be great. Okay I need codes for how to add bookmarks to a book mark options bar. Also I need to find codes for the options of the browser.
I am trying to change the Target CPU for my application and have read on the net to go to Project Properties -> Compile tab then click on the Advanced Compile Options. I am using VB.net 2005 Express Edition. Is this not available in Express Edition or am i looking in the wrong place?
I want a favourites. Where when i click a button it saves the link to a .txt file in C Drive and i want it to make a menu item in a menustrip that has the name of it then when that is clicked it loads that bookmark but it gets it from the .txt file. Or is there an easier way??
My latest VB.NET project has been making a webbrowser. I now want to expand it's functionalities and create a bookmarking system. Would making a folder somewhere and storing files in it as the bookmarks be the best way to do it? Could someone also provide or teach me a way to use a 'for' loop to add all the bookmarks into a menu.
I've been trying to make a browser for a while now, and I still can't figure out how to make favorites or history. Well for history i can get to where it lists but it won't save, so when I close it erases it. I don't care which method, i just want to know one working way. So if you guys could help me with making history and favorites that would be great!
I'm trying to use a menustrip to control the 'bookmarks' function of my webbrowser.
The idea being, when the user opens form2 to add a new bookmark, he enters the url and name they want associated with the bookmark and then when they click the "save" button, it will add a new toolmenustripitem to the menustrip in form1, that, when clicked, will take the webbrowser in the currently selected tab to the url they specified in form2 the adding of the toolstripmenuitem was simple under the save_click event:
Code: Dim bookmrk As New ToolStripMenuItem bookmrk.Text = TextBox1.Text bookmrk.Name = "bkmrk"
I'm coding an advanced web browser. The bad thing is, is that whenever you move your cursor over the window, a wait cursor is displayed. I tried to deselect the wait cursor but it doesn't work! I'm using Visual Basic 2010 Beta 2...

I have a problem. I'm working on this advanced web browser with my friend, and we made a favorites feature. So, it works and all that, but, after I close the executable file, it doesn't save anything!
Ex:Starting Up, adding Google as new favorites, then closing the browser. Starting up again, 1 hour later, but there's no Google Here's what I put for saving the favorites (please do not steal the code Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
I am in need of a form that shows various options, exactly like the Options in Visual Studio. Since there are so many options I too want them categorized, with a TreeView to the left taking care of showing the right category.The usual 'easy' approach here would be to just place a TreeView control on the form, add some nodes, and give those nodes a tag or key that corresponds to a panel or UserControl with the options for that category.Since there will be a lot of options however, this is not really feasible design-wise; the form would be cluttered with possibly 50 panels, all of which I would need to select and bring to front from time to time to add controls to them that represent the options.
So I decided to create a custom control that does exactly that. The control is very similar to my Wizard usercontrol, users can add OptionsPanels at design time, which inherit Panel and simply represent one panel of options. When they do, the panel is added to a container panel, and at the same time a TreeNode is added to a TreeView. The control uses a custom ControlDesigner to handle design-time clicks in the Treeview, selecting a different node would select and bring to front the corresponding panel, allowing the user to add the controls he wants.
Due to the design time support the problem of having 50 panels is no longer present, only one panel will be visible at a time and selecting the right panel is as simple as selecting the corresponding TreeNode, just as during run-time. Anyway, I got all this working, but only for a single 'level' of categories. As you can see in the Visual Studio options, there can be multiple levels of categories. For example, the Environment node has a bunch of children, where each child represents one 'options panel'. There can even be deeper nesting, see the Text Editor node for example.Let me begin by drawing out the basics of how my control works so far.
The main control is an OptionsView control, which contains a SplitContainer with a TreeView to the left and a OptionsPanelContainer to the right. The OptionsPanelContainer is merely a Panel to which only OptionsPanel controls can be added, and which raises events when this happens, as well as when OptionsPanels are removed from it. An OptionsPanel also inherits Panel, and these are the actual panels the users will see in the control, one for each option category.For now, each OptionsPanel has exactly one corresponding TreeNode (and vice versa). In the Visual Studio options, each 'parent' category usually has a 'General' node as the first child, and the parent and this General node show the same option panel, but I am ignoring that for the moment.
The OptionsView control has a property Panels that returns the ControlCollection (Controls property) of the OptionsPanelContainer (in other words: it returns a collection of OptionsPanels that are in this container panel).
vb.net <Editor(GetType(Designers.OptionsPanelCollectionEditor), GetType(UITypeEditor))> _ <DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)> _ Public ReadOnly Property Panels As Control.ControlCollection Get Return Me.PanelContainer.Controls End Get End Property
A custom CollectionEditor for this property takes care of the designer: even though the property type is ControlCollection, the CollectionEditor knows it should create instances of the OptionsPanel control instead of just Controls.When it does this, a corresponding TreeNode is also created and its Tag property is set to the OptionsPanel. Vice versa, the Node property of the OptionsPanel is set to the node. Hence the node and panel both know their corresponding object.
vb.net Public Class OptionsPanelCollectionEditor Inherits System.ComponentModel.Design.CollectionEditor Public Sub New(type As Type) MyBase.New(type) End Sub Protected Overrides Function CreateCollectionItemType() As System.Type
[code]....
So far so good, this all works fine. I can add Panels via the designer and when I do a new TreeNode appears in the TreeView. I can select this node and the panel becomes visible (comes to the front).Now, I am a little stuck. How do I implement child option panels? And more importantly: how do I let the user add child panels?The most logical choice I think is to let each OptionsPanel have a property (ChildPanels or something) that returns the child OptionsPanels for that panel. Once the user selects an OptionsPanel then, he can look in the property grid to find its ChildPanels property and add child panels to that.
There is a problem though: what would this property return? It must return a ControlCollection of some container (this is, I think, a requirement for the designer features to work, otherwise panels are not added to the Form.Designer.vb file). But there is no container. I cannot add them to the OptionsPanel itself, that would make no sense because the parent OptionsPanel has its own set of controls (the options itself...), there cannot be another (fully docked) Panel on top of those obviously.The container of the main OptionsView then? That is not an option either, its Controls collection holds ALL OptionsPanels, not just the children of the selected panel. I cannot 'select' only the right panels either, that would require me to return a new instance of ControlCollection, it would be impossible to return the actual ControlsCollection that holds merely a small selection of its controls.
As i'm learning more and more about developing ive just got my head around creating classes and modules, i started wondering about something to do with configuration of applications where deployment is in a more diverse environment say in a company where different branches dont need access to all parts of a program, so i thought id throw the question out there in a basic sense and get some feedback. so i can go off and do some more reading and learning.
So the scenario in my head is like this.
So we have for arguments sake FrmConfig which is the master configuration form, then we have FrmMain which is the root menu our application general user interfaces with. So here based on what options are checked as enabled in FrmConfig effects what controls (like buttons/menu options) are enabled in FrmMain.
I made a webbrowser that stores it bookmarks in an xml file called "WebSites.xml". I want it to show the favicons of the bookmarks in the button(toolStripSplitButton1) in which they are located but the code doesn't work
Friend Sub AddToolStripButtons() xmldoc.Load(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "" & "WebSites.xml") ToolStripSplitButton1.DropDownItems.Clear()
I'm making a little webbrowser just for the heck of it, And i want to know if you can use a toolstrip for a bookmarks bar. I have it laid out, I just would need the code to make the buttons work.
I made a browser in VB and am trying to get a bookmarks bar, like the ones under the address bar in Google Chrome, Firefox, and IE.I have two listboxes, one with the same text as the button added and another with the url the code should make the listboxes select the same indexed item, and when you click on the button, it finds the same index number in listbox1 which contains the button's text, finds the matching url in listbox2, and goes to it however, I have a problem: when using addhandler for a newly added button, if I extract the text of the current function, it gives me the same text as the handler I'm getting it from its really confusing but basically how can I get the name of the button that was just clicked? the buttons aren't preset (like the user adds them when he/she needs to) so i cant use "button1_click..... button1.text...button2_click.... button2.text"
i want to make a custom instaloler for my ProjectI made a web browser and well.I want to add tabs Make it so you do not have to click go you can hit the return Key falso i want to make it where they have to enter a free 10 diget code i make and give out. iks this possible?one last thingi cannot figurel out how to print save or open a Text Box that i want to make kinda my own simple version of the notepad?sorry so manny questiuon kind new but kinda notIf you want one of the webbrowsers i made email me or tell me i made a couplewow i feel stupid is there anyway to have bookmarks option fr people
I have read other threads on this topic, but I still can't get this to work in VB 2010 Express. I am using 2 PC's, one with Windows7 32 bit and the other with Windows7 64 bit. On both machines the Bookmark icons are not in the toolbar. Using shortcut keys such as CTRL-kk works but I would prefer to use the icons.
I have 'Expert Settings' enabled and the 'Text Editor' toolbar is visible, but there are no bookmark icons in the Text Editer toolbar. Apparently other people have got this to work in the Express version.
When I am in the Visual Basic Express 2010 IDE I can search for an item using CNTR F. If I select "Book Mark All" in the CNTR F window a blue square will appear on the left hand side of the code viewer ex. Form1.vb*. Can someone tell me how to remove these bookmarks, and,also how can I add a bookmark manually for a line of code (perhaps there is a keyboard short cut). Please see the Jpeg attachment of my screen. (this was moved from The General Forum). I found the answer, if others need to know add the TEXT tool bar to the IDE and see the second JPEG below.
i have made a basic web browser, i am trying to add bookmarks and history on to it. I have made a basic bookmarks form where you can add pages, but i want when you double click on a bookmark for it to open in the browser, and i have added a button to add the current page into the bookmarks, but that does not have any code as i did not know where to start.
Also i have not made a template for history as i did not know where to start, please help me out as i really want to get a fully working web browser. Also i have put a link for you to look at the code, and i know the media player is affecting the tabs, i would like to keep the media player but would not like it to auto open if you can also help there (i didnt put that in a friend did)
here is the link, i would have attached it but it was more than 500kb, it was 1.17mb on my pc and 1.18 on mediafire:[URL]..
I'm trying to figure out how to make the code from HTML url...I have in a listview with some pdf filenames..each of these pdf's have bookmarks to other pdf files.I managed to get the code to export the bookmarks and load them into the listview..but only the first listing seems to be working. when it gets to the second listing,, when it gets to the exportbookmarkstoxml function..it hits the catch from then on..i've tried several different things and none of them seem to be working..the code i have is somewhat messy because i been messin' with it,,but i'll try and tidy up as much as possible for ya.I'm thinking that something between the using statement needs to be closed or something but i can't get it to come even close..i even tried closing the reader with reader.close and then deleting the outputxml and then making the file again but that isn't working either. [code]
Ok, it's basically all in the description, but I need to make it so there is not a limited amount of bookmarks. I cannot use My.Settings because when i try to select 'My Project' in the Solution explorer, it doesn't work
