I'm working on an application to write reports for the work I do. I have a Grid filled with Textboxes inside a Scrollviewer to input data for the report. I am using the arrow keys to navigate around the grid. The focus moves to the expected Textbox when the arrow keys are pressed but if I press any other key it is immediately followed by a Tab to the next Textbox. Even a Tab is followed by another Tab. Following is the code I use for the navigation.
Private Sub svReportPage_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Input.KeyEventArgs) Handles svReportPage.KeyUp
Dim focusDirection As FocusNavigationDirection
If e.Key = Key.Right Then focusDirection = FocusNavigationDirection.Right
If e.Key = Key.Left Then focusDirection = FocusNavigationDirection.Left

View 2 RepliesI'm using a WebBrowser control and I'd like to highlight text that the user enters. It's supposed to be kind of like what you get from Ctrl+F in Firefox. I initially tried this:
Me.webHelp.DocumentText = Me.strOriginal.Replace(Me.txtSearch.Text, "<span style=""background-color:#44F; color:#FFF"">" & Me.txtSearch.Text & "</span>")
However, if the user types "body" it replaces every instance of "body", even ones inside tags, which hoses the HTML. How could I separate the page text from the tags(and everything else) and just do a replace on that while maintaining the integrity of the HTML?

'Hello my name is XXX, Hello
And, can I Highlight text between certain text / after certain text
Example :
'Highlight After the '
Or :
<!-- Highlight between these 2 tags -->
