Is it possible to disable image loading on the webBrowser control? - So that pages load faster. I just want the HTML of the page to work with in my code - I don't wish for the page to be displayed. And I know that using httpwebrequest or webclient would normally be the best option for this kind of thing but I need to browse secure https pages and I don't know if that's possible with anything other than the webBrowser control.
I was wondering if this was possible, if so can you point me in the right direction? "Display the progress of loading a txt file into a listbox with ProgressBar".I am basically loading a file (blah.txt) which contains several strings each on their own line:[code]I would like to display the progress of the listbox loading within a progress bar.
I am using web browser control in one of my forms for displaying html files (local files). Before I load the next file I want to clear the webbrowser control of the previous page. I am trying the following method which I found while searching the net.
private Sub ClearWebBrowser(ByVal wb As WebBrowser) Dim tempDoc As IHTMLDocument2 = CType(wb.Document.DomDocument, IHTMLDocument2) tempDoc.write("") tempDoc.close() End Sub
I have added the reference for mshtml namespace in com tab. When trying to run the program, error is thrown like "Type 'IHTMLDocument2' is not defined. (BC30002)".
WebBrowser Example.zip IntroductionBecause the WebBrowser control that we use in .NET is a COM control, not all of its uses are straightforward and some of them (even those which seem like they should be easy) require that we dip into our Interop toolbox in order to properly implement them.
A perfect example of this is loading HTML content into the WebBrowser from memory, rather than a file or a URL. Anyone who's ever used the WebBrowser control before is familiar with the Navigate2 method, which tells the control to load content from a URL (or path to a file). Loading HTML content from memory, however, is a rather elusive practice because of the many steps involved in making it work.
MSHTML.HTMLDocumentYou might notice that the WebBrowser control exposes a "document" property. The object returned by this property can be coerced to the type of "mshtml.HTMLDocument" (you must add a reference to MSHTML to your project in order to make this work) as follows:
Code:Dim clsDocument As mshtml.HTMLDocument = CType(WebBrowser.Document, mshtml.HTMLDocument)
(NOTE: You will have to add a reference to the COM library MSHTML to your project to make this compile)
Once we create an instance of HTMLDocument, a whole new world opens up to us, providing all sorts of DOM access to the content of any given Web page.
If we were to create our own HTMLDocument object from memory, we could use the "write" method to write HTML content to the document from a string variable, like this:
Code:'initialize the document object within the HTMLDocument class... clsDocument.close() clsDocument.open("about:blank")
'write the HTML to the document using the MSHTML "write" method... Dim clsHTML() As Object = {sHTML} m_clsDocument.write(clsHTML) clsHTML= Nothing
WebBrowser Control ImplementationUsing the HTMLDocument returned by the "document" property of the WebBrowser control, however, is not as straight-forward. Because of the way that this object is created and initialized in memory (by the COM WebBrowser control), the "write" method fails when called as above. In order to write content to the HTMLDocument exposed by the WebBrowser control, we must first marshal the string value to a memory space that is compatible with COM. Once the string is properly marshalled, the COM interface IPersistStreamInit (implemented by the HTMLDocument class) must be used to pass the value into the object.
Interop DeclarationsIn order to pull all of this off, we must declare several Interop pieces, including an enumeration, a function, and two interfaces. The declarations for these pieces are as follows:
Is it possible to load HTML content into the HTMLDocument object without having to use the WebBrowser control? I have an html file stored locally that I want to parse in order to find out which checkboxes are on and which are off.
All of the examples I've found use the Webrowser. It just seems convoluted to have to use the WebBrowser in order to get to a DOM object.
I have been tasked to do a project, and have been given a list of links from the client - what the Project needs to do is:1 - open google with a specific search phrase - no problem2 - look on that page for any links containing any member of the list of links, if found, invalidate the entry in the list, and auto-click the link, then go back3 - repeat for any other "finds" on that page4 - when done, auto-click on "Next" (no problem) and go back to step 2For now, I am not even attempting to auto-click the found link and go back, I am just listing all found links in a TextBox. The problem I am having is waiting for the next pages to load before looking for a match in the list of links. I tried using webBrowser.DocumentCompletedto set a Boolean - I tried testing WebBrowserReadyState in the DocumentCompleted event ar the code below gives the best results but it is inconsistent, meaning it completely misses some pages that I know have links on them that match.
I am trying to read a text file into a text box, and show the progress bar loading. Sometimes if the text file is big, i don't know when it will finish reading it. This is basically the code i use to read a text file, but i don't know how to show the progress bar.
how to make the loading bar or progress bar.<input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!-- Session data--></input> <input id="jsProxy" onclick="jsCall();" type="hidden" />
Is there a easy way to show some form of progress bar on your form in ASP.NET that the code is busy running in the background (meaning thinking)? Like the default I.E have the small little window on the top that moves when its thinking
I have done this before with Ajax but its alot of work and my site is not a Ajax enabled site.
my progressbar is retarded when i try to show progress of page loading

Value of '-1' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'minimum' and 'maximum'. on e.currentprogress
I am trying to run a routine to load a gridview from a sql table. I would like a progress meter to run until the grid is loaded. I have tried using the background worker component...but I havent found a really basic example of how to run the progress meter on the uiwhile loading the grid in the dowork event.. is this as intricate as it looks? I just have the meter tied to the tick event of a timer
I need some help loading RTF files in a RichTextBox Control. The RTF file i have has a lot of textbox and some graphics. I tried several methods, but i cannot load the RTF file correctly.Here is what i have so far:
Code: Private Sub btnLoadFile_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLoadFile.Click Dim fn As String Try
[Code]...
I suspect that the LoadFile method cannot read the TextBoxes in my RTF file, or maybe i'm missing something. Attached is the file i'm working on.
im making a web browser, but i dont know how to make a progress bar load when im loading a page. Please note that im using TabControl, so you cant use the WebBrowser function.Also i was wondering if you could add that little thing in the bottom left that says "connecting to http://..." and "transfering data from..." etc.
I want to use a progressbar while loading, which means I need to COUNT. vb.net Dim mysqlCount As New MySqlCommand("SELECT COUNT (*) FROM tableName AS tableCount", mysqlConn)
Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '*) FROM tableName AS tableCount' at line 1
I really don't understand why this occurs. The connection works fine btw. So no issue(s) there.
I am trying to add Images using open file dialog and folder browse dialog and populating the image list to listbox.While adding these Images I need to show the progress bar for every image it loads.
I am trying to get that but when the value of the progress bar say something around 25 0r 40 it is stopping at that point but I need to show the progress bar until it completes the 100% and then populates the Image list.
Here is my code:
Private Sub AddImages_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AddImages.Click If Not Directory.Exists(Application.StartupPath + "Backup") = True Then
searched the web but cannot find any type of code that will allow me to implement a loading circle.or can vb2008 allow me to change the look of the original proress bar?
I copied the code here and translate the code to vb [URL]it is working fine but there is one small problem but I cannot solve? Here is my code: SyncClientVB Another Source The scenario is... the progress is reported by an event (OnCopyingFile event)
Public Sub OnCopyingFile(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As CopyingFileEventArgs) If pbFileTransfer.Value <> e.PercentCopied Then If txtCurrentFile.Text <> e.FilePath Then txtCurrentFile.Text = e.FilePath

The problem is that it is ok when runned but when I click the form it starts to hang but in the console... it is still continuing.
I'm writing a web browser in Visual Basic 2010 Express and I would like to add a progress bar, it all appears to work when I run the program and navigate to a website, but usually (about halfway through) it reaches an error where the progress is either above the maximum or below the minimum.
Here's the code: Private Sub WebBrowser1_ProgressChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserProgressChangedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.ProgressChanged ProgressBar1.Minimum = 0 ProgressBar1.Maximum = e.MaximumProgress ProgressBar1.Value = e.CurrentProgress [Code] .....
I'm attempting to download a file from a website using the WebBrowser control but having some difficultly determining the file path in order to download. Here's the process I'm using:
1. I login into the site using the webcontrol since it's https, e.g.
I have several web browser controls on my form. I don't want to have in the content any styling like font etc because this is controlled by my css in my dynamic website. However I would like to format my browser using the same css as my website so they look very similar. Is there a way to assign a css file the the web browser control in vb.net?
