Navigating From One Webpage To Another In Code Via VB?
Feb 20, 2009
I am developing an intranet site using VB.net 2005. I have a list of reports and their URL's located in a table. The list is displayed to the user using a Gridview control with select turned on. when the user selects one , the selected index changed event triggers looking up the URL from the table and stores it in a session variable. the problem i have is that i now need to open a new web browser window and display the page.
I tried using the envDTE.ItemOperations.Navigate but all of the information provided for this process is written in VB6 and VB2003. In 2005 the DTE proces is not native and when you assigned the ENVDTE.Itemoperatiosn to a shared variable (or any type) and
then try to navigate you get the following error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
so i tried to create an instance but when i try:
ItemOp = DTE.ItemOperations or
ItemOp = EnvDTE.ItemOperations
it gives me an error indicating that this is not possible. My quesion is, does anyone have the correct syntax for using the envDTE.ItemOperations.Navigate instruction from Visual Basic.Net 2005? None of the microsoft pages or microsoft books provide correct syntax. Or does anyone have any substitute code that can navigate a user from a protected sub in one page to a new web page?
Like I imagine everyone, I often have problems navigating my code because the flow can jump from place to place. For example, if my code calls routine1, and I then want to go to routine1's code, I know that I can click in the dropdown menu and it will take me to that sub. But wouldn't it be easier if I could somehow right click on the call to routine way and select something like 'take me there' which would transport me from the function making the call to the code for the function being called? Then it would be easy to hop from place to place.
Im trying to set my homepage on my browser , i know i can do it in properties but that seens to revert back to the hompage that im using on IE.Heres my home button click

What code do i need to add to redirect it to a certain webpage?
I need to make a super simple web-page monitoring tool in VB.Net that checks FieldNation.com every few minutes for new work orders. To do that, I need to log in to their page. I think I can figure out how to read the page once I'm logged in, but how can I actually log in? I heard it had something to do with WebClient.
Would it be possible to basically make a full web page appear in a windows form application as an image? Sort of like a print screen command, but just for the web page itself. I need this to show any web page in overview as a image in my program, but I have no idea how to go about this. I suppose it would be almost like a web browser; other then that you can't click links or interact with the page at all, as it is an image. Preferably without loading the web page then converting it, but having it as in image as you load any given page - not sure if it's possible with just VB. Even a rudimentary method would be much appreciated.Note: I'm not to great with VB, so if you don't mind, please provide as much detail as you can with any given code,
I have a vb.net / ado.net application for distributors that queries a sql server db, converts the records to tab delimited text format file. After building the file, the user goes to the website of the manufacturer, logs in to a private area and uploads the txt file.
I would like to add a function to my vb.net code that would launch a browser in a form, load the manufacturer's login screen, load the user id, password and then let the user log in by clicking the login button. Then when the next page loads, I'd like to have the text file I just created pop into the web page text box for file name, choose a couple of radio button options properly and then let the user click the submit button.

Ok I was wondering how can I grab the source code from webbrowser1. The problem is that I cant find this line of code in the source code. I cant only find it if I highlight what I want and do a right click and look for the source code. I heard is was like a hidden part of the source code. How canI implement that in my program?

I'm trying to design a small program for my home server that automatically updates an HTML page every time a new file is added to a certain directory.Example, say I already have 100 files in "C:Folder", and on the HTML page, all those files are listed in a table, and when you click on one of them, the file opens, say I add a new file to the folder, I want the program to automatically add that file to the list of other files, and put *NEW* next to it (newfile.txt *NEW*), and I would like it to say *NEW* for 5 days, so how would I go about making a program that does all that?

How do you access a web page's source code without downloading the file? i.e., downloading a .php file generally wouldn't work - I want to access the code that it would return if I was using a browser.
I wanted to ask you something which is bugging me for a while. I work an IT dept at a local bank and I got instructions to make an application which should retrieve some financial info from a financial banking stats page.
The webpage can be accessed through[URL] and the info can be seen in the web browser but I cannot extract them because the info is not available in the source code of the page.It seems it's generating the info dynamically using a jsquery.js file.
I was wondering if it's possible to make an app which uses some cache or something (I guess the the page is saved temporary somewhere on the disk for the current session) to retrieve that data in vb.net?
I once read somewhere it was quite simple (few lines of code) to display a webpage in a webbrowser control, by passing the control the HTML from a string, or predefined code.
I was looking through the internet for codes for word search and the onlyone i found was for non-tabbed webbrowsers.I've been fiddling with it but i cant figure out how to change it for Tabbed Browsers.

[URL] but then with the option to provide username & password. I have managed to do this with the webbrowser, first logging in then go to webpage and get source code but this takes much longer than just getting the source code...
Is there any way to do this? I found this:
[URL]
I tried with &username=...&password=... in the URL but it didn't work
In webbrowser, I am visiting a website that lists 10 items per page, I select "20 items per page". The webpage dynamically updates to display a list of 20 items.However when I view the webpage code it still shows 10 items. If I refresh the webbrowser, the code will show 20 items.
