I am trying to figure out how I can highlight every instance of a search string found in the the webbrowser control. The closest I came was to replace each instance with html code that highlights the text, but that causes problems because it replaces the search string in links and causes problems with text boxes on the page if an instance of the search string is in a textbox on the web page.[code]...

I am working on a parental control system for my webbrowser (checks if navigated page is on the blacklist). So I was looking for a list of sites to add to the system as default, I didn't find any but my friend did, but the problem is he gave me a list, for example, with lots of lines like this:
http:somename:something@website.com
http:somename1:something1@website2.com
How can I remove everything from the "@" till the "http;" (including http) and remove it all so only the website name stays? I could do it by hand/notepad, but it would take forever as the list has over 2k sites I would like to add in my blacklist! I thought maybe strings could do it?

I have a Webbrowser control on my Windows Form that loads a local page using the DocumentStream property. The page contains an input element of type text. When rendered, users are able to type anything they wish however they are unable to use keys like "Delete" or typical Cut & Paste functions. If it were not for the fact that you can type data and Basckspace to delete the character one at a time. If I load the same page in Internet Explorer, the input box functions correctly.

I'm working on a pretty simple project, just a WebBrowser app which is tailored for Webmail. I'm working on an OWA portion, and OWA normally doesn't allow the textfields on the Login page to be auto-filled. Is there a way I can force this? Search through the OWA login page code, find the fields, then fill in the fields with preset/saved data?

View 1 RepliesI've built a basic editor which have code auto-completion feature and also shows parameter list. Now I want to add highlight matching bracket feature. I've no idea on how to do this !
Update:I know some basic algorithm to find the matching bracket, but don't know how to highlight it ! [to change the color or making it bold of the matching bracket]. I'm using multi-line textbox for this issue.
i have checked all over the internet, but they just hightlight rows using the datagrid attributes. How do you hightlight a selected row in a datagrid. I tried the onclick attribute but that does not work as it keeps the row selected when another row is selected.

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.

View 6 RepliesI have a regular application form with a WebBrowser control.I have strung together a .htm file (from a regular text file) which I then assign to the WebBrowser control. In the html file, I have filenames mentioned.I am trying to string together the html in such a way as to give a clickable link or button that will parse into html and open the corresponding file in another WebBrowser control in VB.I have tried using VBScript and JavaScript to put a button in the html.As long as the function or sub I call is also in the same html document, it works, but I really need to transfer the control back into visual basic where I can do the heavy lifting I need to.can I just not do this as a regular VB application? Any way to do it without adding the complication of requiring ActiveX?
