I have made a simple web browser in VB Express 2008 that goes to www.metvuw.co.nz for weather viewing. The problem is when you click on a link to show a picture (it is not just a picture it is a html page) of the weather it opens up in a new window in IE, is it possible to have it just open in the same window (in my browser) and use the back button to go back to the previous page? Ie just like when you click a normal link that doesn't open up a new tab or window.
I'm trying to handle browser popups using the NewWindow event of the WebBrowser control. The one main thing I needed is the cookie from the main browser control on my form to be passed to the popup window. Below is the only way I've been able to open the popup and pass the Document.Window.Opener value to it so that when java script is executed, it knows where the opener window is. I am getting the following error right now when trying to set the cookie from my webbrowser control to the iexplore instance of the popup window that opened.
I have a large project in Vb.net which drives a web browser control around. What's the best, and easiest, way to manage browser pop ups? Note, I am not just looking to cancel or close them. I need to manage them just like the main window.
I'm using the WebBrowser control to automate some things in the background of my application but I'm getting this popup. How can I disable these popups in the webbrowser?
I'm trying to implement my own downloader. I have the download Form and I had a way to show it but, It's inefficent because, It just checked for ending extensions!I just want to cancel the download and show my downloader with the URL.[code]...
I have a webbrowser control (in fact, a control inheriting from webbrowser), and added a tooltip control to the main form. Then, I filled the webbrowser tooltip text.But the tooltip never shows. (because the web browsers manage mouse hover with html?)I examined all the events exposed on the webbrowser control, and there is not one about mouse hover.so, the question is: How do I show the tooltip? Should investigate HTML, or there is a .NET control way?
i am having a tad of a problem when it comes to popups and new windows. I am currently opening new windows in my webbrowser using the href command and this has been working fine for about 40% of websites but I am running into a few problems as the other 60% of popups are still opening in Internet Explorer windows.I am currently using the
On Error Resume Next Dim myElement As HtmlElement = CType(TabControl1.SelectedTab.Controls.Item(0), WebBrowser).Document.ActiveElement Dim target As String = myElement.GetAttribute("href")[code]....
I am having problems loading login forms (asking for username and password to connect to the internet) and any window that uses javascript commands in the href to load the popups.For example:If anyone has encountered such a problem before and knows how to fix it it would be great if you could post up some code or a link to a walk through so I can see how its done.
How to get a nice pop-up of default values for a function? Here's what I mean: I assume it's an enum or object but I'm not sure where to define it or what exactly it would be called.
My help files have a lot of image maps which link to popups, which I implemented as described in the Help for HHW. They work fine in the context of the help system, but if I open the html file in a browser (Firefox or IE), they don't work - nothing happens at all when I click on the hot spots.
I'm new on the Development Block, and I would like to know if there is anyone who can help me with popup windows. What I need is a popup window that will apear on the same page as the one on this link: [URL]
How do i block popups on a tabbed webbrowser? I know how to do it on one thats not tabbed though. This is what i got so far but it shows an error that says exactly "Value of type 'System.Windows.Forms.Control' cannot be converted to 'System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs.'"[code]
I was wondering, how can I block pop-ups (Ex: Script Errors, advertisements) in a Visual Basic web browser?Also, I was wondering is there a way to add a web browser to every tab I add. What I mean is to get my window problem to work, I had to add a webbrowser to a tab page. How can I make it to where I add a new tab, that it will automatically add a new web browser
I am using Visual Basic 2008. However, the Report a Bug function does not work, which in itself is a major bug.While I am typing in the code editor, these annoying popups keep popping up and completely blocking my view of the code. I have no idea what these popups are showing and do not need them. I have not been able to find any way of turning them off. I consider this another major bug.
i was wondering is there anyway to stop the error popup messages when i assign a datasource to a DataGridView (and there are errors). i was hoping i could wrap the assigning statement into a Try Catch and handle the errors myself instead of having them popup.
I have a web application that allows a user to view family members.
When the user clicks on a family member, it displays the member's basic info. There is also a grid displaying that family member's related family members. (e.g. User can click on the Father link. From that popup, they can then click on the Father's Father link, then click on the Father's Father's Grandson link, etc.).
To reduce the number of popups that appear on the screen, I want to prevent the user from continually clicking on family links past three members.
What is the best way to keep track on how many data forms have popped up? Or can this reliably be done with a web application?
I wrote an application to handle a joystick with directinput. It works fine if it uses the handle of the main window but it doesnt happen the same if the handle is the one of the component that contains the joystick's operation.
I mean:
main form handle: 15
component handle (which is inside the window and the joystick needs the focus of this component to work): 25
It always work if the handle i initilizate the device is the main form (15).How can i use only the handle of the component?
I have an application that opens a bunch of Excel files in the background and saves them as pdf files (amoung other functions) and when accessing these Excel files on a shared drive I get a lot of quick pop ups that look like they say "Downloading..." something or other (to hard to get a screenshot) they also have a progress bar. I was wondring if there was a way for me to stop them from displaying.
how can i make my webbrowser open up a new link in my same webbrowser or in another form? basically what im saying is i dont want it opening links in internet explorer.
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. When button is clicked it webbrowser1 navigates to each url and each webpages document.inertext is put into textbox. This all work fine but after a while the webbrowser navigation becomes increasingly slower.
For Each RW As DataGridViewRow In Me.DataGridView1.SelectedRows '''''''''''#######cell values into strings ########'''''''''''''' If RW.Selected = True Then Dim domain As String
I want to make a webbrowser, but only have it show one specific thing and not the whole page. The thing I want it to show and only show is in about the middle. How would I frame the page, and put it on the webbrowser?
