I have a WebBrowser control that have a webpage loaded in it. On the webpage I have a textarea control, like this:
<textarea name="text" id="textarea_obj">
I'd like to use the GeckoWebBrowser control to display HTML code that I type (or paste) into a TextBox. Here is the (nonworking) code I have:
GeckoWebBrowser1.Text = textBox1.Text()
I know this sounds like a simple thing but I have searched and all examples have not helped. I have been unable to update the textarea at I have gotten the code to work at other sites though.So specifically I want to update the "post a new thread" textarea. If you go toand then signup (you need an account to post a new thread). Then go to any forum and click "NewThread".I then can update the subject field but the textarea (name="message") does not update with the value. I am not sure why it doesn't work when I have got this working on a lot of other sites.
Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted

How can I change value of this?
HTML
<textarea rows="5" cols="90" class="message">
If I use a textbox I have no issues getting data into sql. I'd like to use a textarea with autowrap and all that. But when I change the <input type="text" id="au_id"> to <textarea name="au_id"> I can't get the .value of au_id.Value code listed below. All I want is to swap single line text box for multiline textarea and still onclick get my lines posted in sql. Some of the names/id's make no sense for what they go to, I copied most of the code from Microsoft's site, and making changes as I go.
code:
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Text"%>

What i'm attempting to do is have several textboxes where the user input's there information and a seperate text box to give there input a name so it can be sent to a combobox and saved with my.settings so when the program loads or the user needs the textboxes populating they can select the name in the combobox and it fill out the textboxes.

How would I code a TryParse to get the input from customer from a textbox named Strands and convert it to a number (this number will always be a whole complete number, cannot be 5.6 or 4 1/2 or whatever) then have that Strand number be muliplied by the selected item in my listbox1. This listbox has an access database bound to it with 2 columns Size and Area, the Size equals the Area and I set the Value to the Area column but set the Size to show up in the list box. and the Strands textbox has to muliply by the Size picked, but by the Area # not the Size #. And the results of that multiplication showing up in another textbox named total.

View 2 RepliesI'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.

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.

When rendered, users are able to type anything they wish however they are unable to use keys like "Delete" or typical Cut & Paste functions.

View 6 RepliesI am trying to use the Web Browser control in my vb .net user control. I am using VS 2008. Finally, I will be calling my assembly (.dll) from a web page. I wanted to display the usercontrol with the web browser control inside this web page. The problem is I cannot proceed since the Web browser control cannot be called from a partially trusted assembly. Using VS 2008 I have created a strong name for my class, also added the <Assembly: AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers()> to the AssemblyInfo. But still the web browser control cannot be seen in my web page. Do you how I can make my assembly fully trusted so that it can access web browser control? If you have used web browser control, can you confirm if this step is really required?!
