How do you get html document to open in WB while exploring ?
I am writing a few web based apps which will require a webbrowser extension. I have already used the IE webbrowser control that uses the trident web rendering engine. I believe this is MSHTML.DLL? Anyway, some of the users of my programs have complained of a few things. Particularily,
1. It seems to be a slow browser, at least compared to other rendering engines out there (webkit and gecko are 2 known ones).
2. On the developer side, it seems to be low in features. The features are sufficient in most cases, but there are some "special" things that I need.
3. It has VERY low HTML (and especially HTML5) compliance.
My question is, how much work would it take to use a different engine (such as webkit .net, which I HAVE heard of) and be able to distribute it easily. Or, if you guys feel ambitious, we could try writing a brand new engine ourselves. I know how big of a job it is, and frankly, I have no clue where to begin. I would just like your thoughts and opinions on the matter.
I am utilizing a webbrowser control in vb.net 2005 to display excel workbooks
We are using this control to open excel documents. Webbrowser.ShowSaveAsDialog() allows the user to save the excel workbook open at any location he wants
However, I don't want the user to decide where to save. Is there any way to save an excel document from the webbrowser control without going through the ShowSaveAsDialog?
On closing of webbrowser, a simple prompt to user whether he/she would like to save changes should be fine enough
As of now, I can close webbrowser control and it does not prompt the user to save the changes. Actually, all changes are lost until and unless I perform a save (Ctrl+S) manually
i have created an app to load an access database into a datagridview, which contains web urls.

View 3 RepliesI have been trying to switch my code from using an ie object to using a built in webbrowser. Most of the properties are the same but I have run into an issue getting an xmldocument from a page.
'Internet Explorer Object
Dim oXML As Object = oIE.document.XMLDocument
nodeList = oXML.SelectNodes(path).length
Trying this method on webbrowser obviously doesn't work. But does anyone know the path to get the XMLDocument object from webbrowser?
So I've got a button that adds a tab using the tabcontrol object.
TabControl1.TabPages.Add("Test")
How would I add a webbrowser to that since i dont know what the tab page # of it will be specifically?
Each tab will have the same components, but might goto a different url.
When you create a webbrowser it obviously uses Internet Explorer. Can you change this to Chrome?
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to read out the contents of a page that has already be loaded into a webbrowser...say IExplorer...?

View 2 RepliesI have been wondering if this method is possible, even for a newbie like myself. I wanted to know a way in which I could gather data, and send data to a web page/web source/website without a web browser to ensure the fastest performance. (Not loading scripts, images, flash animations etc) Is there a simple way to explain how to do this? Also, probably not related, but I also wanted to know how to make a Form in my program to where people could email me through it aswell.
