View 2 RepliesI'm trying to select a button in a webbrowser on the website twitterfeed.com. My usual solution of finding the element and sending invokemember("click") doesn't seem to work for this particular page, and the button doesn't have an id. The button has the following code:
<a class="btn_1" href="#" onclick="document.forms[0].submit();return false;"> "Continue to Step 2" <span> </a>
I assume the .submit() is referring to an html function, so can I simply call that function from the webbrowser somehow?
I am having a problem with the BackOrdered Function of my program. I can`t get it to say anything but 0 when I run the program. Another problem I am having is the input box pops up like 6 times and it`s only suppose to once. [Code]

View 4 RepliesI'm writing a small program that loads a folders contained file names into a list box, you then double click one of the file names listed and it appears within the programs text area where the user may freely edit it. I then have given the users options to export the data contained within the text box to a word template. What I'd like to do is add a button which the user can click in order to strip away all the html within the text areas content. I found a solution but for some reason I can't make it work. There are no errors displaying nor does the program crash out, it simply isn't doing what it should be doing.
The function I'm using is below:
Function stripHTML(ByVal strHTML)
'Strips the HTML tags from strHTML using split and join
'Ensure that strHTML contains something
If len(strHTML) = 0 Then
stripHTML = strHTML
[Code] .....
I've used the below snippet in an attempt to put the function to work in the text box.
Private Sub btnHTMLstrip_click()
' calls function stripHTML, applies to text box
richTxtBox.Text = stripHTML(richTxtBox.Text)
End Sub
So, its not working as it should?
I have the following code:
Dim lStatementText As String
Dim lStatementString As New System.Text.StringBuilder
lStatementString.Append(RndRes.Forms.txt_request)
lStatementString.Append(" ")
lStatementString.Append("<b><a>")
[Code]...
Where Request.ID, Request.Description and also RndRes.Forms.txt_* are all strings. I want to display the string I build up here in a Infragistics FormattedLinkLabel. The problem is that if any of the strigs from the Request class contains a HTML character, the label is not displayed properly and the HTML encoding is broken.I need to find a function that masks the HTML codes.
I am trying to invoke the onclick function in an html page that displays content. I am using the httpwebreqest control and not a browser control. I have traced the function and tried to find the link it calls but looking at the code below I tried inserting the link into the browser with the main url but it does not work.

I have a webservice created using classic ASP which i am trying to get working in .Net.
Currently i am using the following ASP to post an XML file to [URL] . This then sends back an XML response.

I am trying to emulate this in VB.Net so that i can receive an XML response from the xml_url.
However i get an error warnign me that the following cannot be created:
Code:
I have some existing code that looks something like this:
[tag:cb cbid="12345" cbwidth="200" cbclassname="calloutbox" cbposition="left"] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
[tag:cb cbid="123" cbwidth="200" cbclass="calloutbox2" cbposition="left"] Suspendisse eleifend enim a magna pretium porttitor.
I need to write a VB .Net global function that will match these [tag:cb] and take the optional parameters and rewrite the string with Html tags.
<div id="12345" width="200" class="calloutbox" position="left">content (based on id)</div>
Does Visual Basic have a function to switch between HTML character entities and plain text natively?
EG. > < to > <
This may sound really stupid but I have to ask cause I'm not finding this answer anywhere.I have an application where the user will need to sign up for a new user account on the website [URL]..However when I am using Firefox's plug-in Firebug to view html I am getting something totally different than when I just right click on the site and view the page source.
What I am trying to do is to get the captcha from the website and display it in a picturebox on the application so the user can view the captcha, solve the captcha and then the app post is back to the service for a response.
Here is the source that I am getting using Firefox's Firebug to inspect the element:
<td>
<input type="hidden" value="Oo3Jo1I8bgzK68agMqo3s79ZZib2OkbK" name="iden">
<img class="capimage" src="/captcha/Oo3Jo1I8bgzK68agMqo3s79ZZib2OkbK.png" alt="i wonder if these things even work">
</td>
[Code]...
Why would the two be showing me two different versions of the HTML?
And how would you be able to grab that source to view in a picturebox using webclient?
As we know when a column divider is double clicked the column width resizes itself to fit its contents. How can we emulate this behavior with code?

How to emulate a mouse click with directinput?
like ive been searching for this for hours and can't find anything decent for VB 2008
Visual Basic 6 had the Text Box Array that worked great.It no longer exists(in the same form) in either Visual Basic 20085 or 2010.I know that there are work-arounds that emulate the Text Box array but these are certainly not as easy to use as the version 6 Text Box Array.
In Visual Basic 2010 there is a tool box item that can be added, called Text Box Array. However, this does not place a Text Box on the form and I can't find any explanation of how to use it.what adding this to a form accomplishes and how to use it?
I can load web pages into VS 2008 and then examine each component. Is there a way to load a web page in a browser control but not make it "active" - in otherwords, If there is a field for "Search Term" anmd a button for "Search", I want the prog to diosplay the properties of those elements rather than taking action.

Anyone know how we can connect a USB cable to one of the ports on the computer and send keys to it and have that acted like it was a keyboard if the cable was connected to another computer? I'm sure the USB jump drive for example is like a mini-computer, so how do we do the same thing but with a computer? Is there any code in VB, .NET for this?

View 16 RepliesI am trying to emulate the Wordpress post editor. Basically Bold, Italics, hyper links, bullet points, and numbering. Is there an application I can incorporate into my project and if so how would I do it.
If not, how can I reference text that the user has selected in a RichTextBox. Say they have the first 10 characters highlighted and the bold button is clicked, I would wrap it with <strong></strong>.Also, in a RichTextBox aside from an html editor, how can I justify the text within the box?
-Timers, but the timer lags too much.
-Stopwatch Class, still lags (little but still).
I need ms accuracy, my prg will replace a hardware stopwatch used in competition.
what I did was, I coded a HTTP web request "Browser". It's not a real browser but it's emulating a browser. It works fine, I'm using it to perform some searches without the clicking sound or audio from the pages (stupid ads).
Then thing is, it returns back the page's source code. There is a tag called "Block1". Now Since it's a string I can't just use str.document.getelementbyid("Block1").getattribute("value")but if the webbrowser can "emulate" then source code sent back from the HTTPBrowser then I can use it.
Usage: Users create pretty HTML news letters in another app. They post the newsletter to the web, but they also want to set the contents of the HTML news letter file as the body of an email and send it using Application In Question. The users understand to use absolute link and image references when sending an E Newsletter. Environment:
AIQ is a VB.Net app deployed via ClickOnce. It is an intranet app; one can be sure MS Office 2003 and the interop 11 dlls are on the target machines.
Restrictions: MAPI is out. It mangles the HTML. Since it is a ClickOnce deployment, we can't register dlls (I think, correct me if I am wrong). Therefore CDO and COM is out (again, I may be wrong.... I would be happy to be proven so).

View 10 RepliesI have a problem with a purchased UI control, and to do a quick and dirty fix (no time to build/order a new control), I need to emulate a click at the right side, say 10 pixels into the control, from the right side of the control. Is that possible in vb.net? We can't do this functionality programmatically, due to a bad API design. And now time is running low.
Which method do I use to get the coordinate to perform the click at, and what code do I use to do the actual click? The code should move mousepointer to the location, do a right click and then return to where it was, hopefully without the user ever noticing anyting.
if there was a way to emulate the application.settings file's ability to do something like the following:
If I add an item to the settings file editor say Variable1 with a a value of "foo"
I can then go to my.settings.default. (and at this point) Variable1 is item that is an option after I type the '.'
Is there a way to do this for a collection? To where I have
Collection1. (and when I press '.' the name of an item would show up?)
