Forms :: Web Browser Control Navigate And Set Document Text As Well
Jun 23, 2011
In my app I am using a web browser control, I am displaying a list of files that are there in selected Directory, when the file type is of some image I do it as WebBrowser1.Navigate(sFileName), the image is then displayed in the Web Browser Control, when there is Word Doc I had code that converts the word doc to HTML and it is displayed in the WB Control all good so far, now when the file is of type xls, xlsx I am not converting the file to HTML instead I just use the navigate command and open the file in Excel so that user can then edit it and save it on his system. Now the problem is lets say I am toggling through pages in Directory first file is Image so it will be displayed next when it is Excel file then it will open the file in MS Excel but the WebBrowser COntrol has that previously opened image, I want to clear that when the excel file is opened. So here is what I tried. [code]It navigates to Excel file but does not display text and the image from previous file persists in the web browser control.I even tried to navigate it to "about:blank" but it then does not navigate to Excel file.

I would like for my program to navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines and multiple url links inside of it. I know how to make the webbrowser1.navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines, however I want my webbrowser to navigate to each url every 1-1.5 seconds once button1 is clicked. Yes, my webbrowser1 will navigate to the specified urls via the textbox1.text (multilines) with a button click, but I need the webbrowser1 to navigate in a order sequence from top to bottom of Textbox1.text (multiplelines) every 1 second. Here is the current code that I have to navigate via multilined textbox1.text control in order sequence:

I have a webbrowser1 control that navigates via Textbox1.text (W/multiplelines) and set on a Timer1 (every .25 seconds).My issue is that I need to navigate to at least 1200-1500 urls before Timer1.stop (), but my webbrowser1 seems to only make it to 200-500 max, before I get an error saying that my program is "Not Responding" and freezes.

Basically I have a webcrawler app which uses a web-browser control to navigate to a URL. Once the page is loaded, I use the function below to grab the HTML. Once I obtain the HTML, using HTML Agility Pack I extract the plaintext. Once this is down, with a click of a button I save the url, and plaintext to the database (using sql server).
tb_HTML.Text = WebBrowser1.document.Body.OuterHtml
Now my question is how can I carry the above as a background process, whereby say I have a form and enter all the url I need to extract the plain text from i.e. download the HTML and then using HAP extract the text and then automatically save the result inside the dB.

I can create them using Ctrl+T(webbrowser controls and all) but after that I don't have any idea on how to control them(let's say I select the 5 tab and I don't know how to make that web browser control to navigate to a given webpage). I was thinking of creating an array of webbrowsers but I don;t know how that works.

The VB.Net desktop app uses the IE browser control to navigate the web. When a normal page loads the document_complete event fires and I can read the resulting page and go from there. The issue I am having is that the page I am driving is written with AJAX, so the document complete event never fires. Furthermore, when you view the source of the page after it loaded a new portion via AJAX, it hasn't change.

I created this program to automatically post reviews I have written to this website. All the code works fine until the last line. It throws this error "Object variable or With block variable not set." I can't figure it out, because it works fine before this point when i call it on other pages.
Dim email, password As String
email = "email"
password = "password"

I have a form with a webbrowser control on it, and I load up a local file in it with some code for a rotating banner (so I can support my app with advertising).The problem I'm having is, it is for example, a banner ad in the small banner sized control, when the user click's it, it loads the new page within the same control, which is way too small.I'd like for any click in the control to load up the link in IE itself, outside of my app. Putting target=_blank so far hasn't helped. Below is the code that I am loading up in my control.

I recently upgrade a project from vb 6 to 2008. Most of the code runs fine.I have a webbrowser form control that I use to navigate local files and display them with. (i have a file list box that you click which calls the navigate of the browser control). Most file types i have test work fine and display just as they would in a real browser window. Excel, PDFs, etc... so examples of files that utilize "plugins" like acrobat reader inside the browser work great. Tiff files are the exception. No error is thrown in vb, but the browser throws 2 runtime errors, included at the end here. After the browser errors are ignored the program continues execution but will just not display the file.
i can type the path to the file (eg c: estfielsfilename.tif) in a regular browser window and it displays just like it should, inside IE, using a plugin.Prior to upgrading, depending on what was installed on the computer, navigating to a tif would open the tif with picture and fax viewer, or display it with a tif viewer plugin.

I have writtine a program in VB 2008 that uses "webrowser1.navigate" in a browser that I created on a form in my application, so that I could add buttons for other functions on that Form and to load a web page with Flash content. Everything seems to work fine on 32 bit machines but, on 64 bit machines when the web page is loaded, Falsh content does not work and I get a Security Warning asking "Do you want to install this software?" and the software is Adobe Flash Player. IE is 32 bit (on 64 bit machine) and has Flash Player installed and the Flash content works for this web page using IE.Is ther some code that I should add or a property that I should change on the VB 2008 Form containing the browser that I created, so that the Flash content will work?

All this should happen at the launch of the web browser form. Example of the text file contents would be [URL] Code as follows:

I'm using a webbrowser control to access an e-mail account, once there I need to find out how many emails currently in the inbox, and it's contained within certain tags and letters, and only them.The tags & letters are:
Quote:
<em>Inbox <b>(Email number)</b></em>
So i need to get what's inside the brackets, which also has tags and inbox.Only way I can see of getting that is regex? - Which I've rarely used.

I'm starting to learn arrays, but I'm a little bit confused on how to call the data listed in them.I have the following code in a module and was wondering how I call them in my forms.I was told to use a counter to keep track of where the User is in the code in order from them to navigate correctly. I'll be using Next and Previous buttons.
Public FormList() As Form = {frmMain, frmStartup, frmUninstaller, frmAutomation}
Public CurrentForm As Integer = 0

I have code to create a listbox and populate it, and would like the box to behave like it does when clicked, e.g. if you CLICK on "a" you see it blue and can press the down arrow to move down to "b". how do I achieve this programmatically?
Private Sub junkloader()
brandlist.Visible = True
brandlist.Items.Clear()
brandlist.Items.Add("a")[code].....
this code SELECTS it properly, but I want to be able to navigate with the up and down arrows. how do I do this? thanks.

I'm guessing there is a really simple answer to this but i've spent the best part of 2 days trying to get it to work and cannot figure it out.Basically, I want is the webbrowser to point to a local folder on a machine. A different one depending on who is logged on. The code I have so far is as follows.
Imports System.IO
Public Class frmFav
Private Sub frmFav_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim username As String
[code]....
I cannot get the URL value of the webbrowser (FavProgs) to take the value of directoryname. If I set the URL value in the properties for FavProgs it does what I want it to do perfectly.
