Scrolling Webpage Automatically Using WebBrowser Control
Jun 18, 2010
I am navigating to a website using a webbrowers control and I wish to automatically scroll the page after it is loaded. I have used scrolltop , scrollleft commands as set out below but nothing seems to happen.
WebBrowser1.Document.Body.ScrollTop = 100
WebBrowser1.Document.Body.ScrollLeft = 200
I have placed the above commands in a command button and wait until the page has loaded before I press it and also in the
WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted sub
Other commands such as
WebBrowser1.Document.Body.ScrollIntoView(True)
Seem to work ok.
I've pulled down a webpage using a WebRequest object, and need to parse it, but first I need to render it since there is scripting on the page. I don't want to use the WebBrowser control because that forces me to jump out of my current function to the DocumentCompleted event, and "lose my place" (so to speak). Is there any way for me to pull down a URL using a WebRequest object and have the page rendered but still stay in my function?
I'm wanting to randomize the selection of a select box on a webpage via the webbrowser control.
What I can do.
Dim testRandom As String = curElement.InnerText Dim RandomSplit() As String = Split(testRandom, " ") Dim intRandom As Integer = RandomSplit.Length Dim curRandom As String = curElement.GetAttribute("Value") Dim rnd As Integer, randomNum As New Random
Got To Webpage without using webbrowser control?If so, how would i read / get the html of this page? I can do this now with a webbrowser control, but just looking for a quicker way.I've seen this online below.

I am using webbrowser control to automatically navigate through facebook.Nothing malicious, just an experiment of sorts.Im working on a bot that that would extract the names of all friends on my friends page, open up those pages, extract their friends names, and repeat.The end result would be a chart of who knows who. A sort of 'six degrees of separation' experiment.I have everything automated up until getting to my friends page and I am having trouble extracting the urls from my friends page. [code] Now, I figure I can extract from <div class=fsl fwb fcb">, but Im confused as to how to go about doing this. On another thread, someone said it cant be done with webbrowser control, but im new automation.
I have a VB program that uses a web browser control to navigate some websites for me but I need to click a button.
The button is in a frame and in a form with 4 buttons. I have already figured out how to navigate the individual frames and forms but I can't figure out how to click the button I need.[code]...
I am trying to write a program that will tell my grandmother whether the internet is live or not. I know, I know, She just doesn't get it. So I want to create a program to load google.com or something and all I want the program to do is tell her whether the site was found or not. Is there a way to do this with the WebBrowser control?
I'm using this control in a application to load the URL of a .jpg image. The thing is that the image is bigger than the control, so I want it to automatically resize the image, as IE does when the same thing happens there, and it even shows a little magnifier glass to restore the image to full size.How can this be achieved? What happens at default is that the image is bigger than the control, so a quarter of it shows and I have to scroll to see the rest.
I have been working on this one for a couple of days now. The company I work for wants me to automate a login (coupled with a phone dialer) to a national Satellite retailer. When the call center individual gets a call the ACD system forwards them to a URL and is supposed to log them in. Unfortunately one of the sites heavily uses frames and I cannot programmatically autofill the userid and password and programmatically press the "OK" button on thee website. The website is: [URL]. I have been able to drill down and fill in the userid and password fields, but this has stopped working but I have never been able to Invoke the OK button event.
I know the code to find the input boxes in question.. basically the html is like so HTML <input type="text" name="username" class="inputbox"> i know enough to use WebBrowser1.Document.Forms.GetElementsByName("username") to find the text box...but I need to know how to send the contents of say TextBox1.text to the form on the web page...i can't figure it out for crap...I just assume give up and use sendkeys to tab to the textbox even thought its 80% unreliable....
This time I am stucked with a JSP page which is loaded in my webbrowser control. I have checked that it has been loaded. But I am unable to locate any of the controls of that page. Even in the count of any html controls it displays me 0. The page contains two frames and there is no "iFrames". Has Javascript got do anything with this?
I'm attempting to populate fields in a processing webpage [URL] and having a small problem.
I can add the email and antenna heights easily but how do I manipulate a file browser (file upload) and option input boxes (Antenna Type) from within my vb app?
It might be the long way around but i'm doing it via searching each of the html elements to find the named fields I'm looking for:
Dim intWork As Integer For intWork = 0 To WebBrowser1.Document.All.Count - 1 strWork = WebBrowser1.Document.All.Item(intWork).Name
I have implemented webbrowser control in my windows application. I have some functions inthe class file. i want to use those functions from the webpage which is displayed in my windows app through webbrowser control..For example say... I have an standalone windows software. Which has a webbrowser control in the some form. Now i would like to create a webpage that can be displayed in the webbrowser control in win app which has some buttons and textboxes. When i click on button in the webpage it should get the version number of that software. I have some other functions that are in the class file aswell.. but dont no how to call those functions from that webpage when a button is clicked or something like that.
In a project I'm working on studying Regular Expressions in matching text in a text box to the regular ezpression. The indexes and lengths of matches in a text box are stored in a list box. When I click an index, I use the info to set the text box selection Start and Selection Length so I can quickly observe all of the matches in the text box by clicking or using the arrow keys to scan through the text box listings.
It works great except when large amounts of text are in the text box, some of the matches are scrolled off the visible area of the text box so it is necessary to manuall scroll throught the text box, which reduces the usefulness of the setup.Is there a way to get the text box to automatically scroll into hidden text that is marked with the selectstart and selectlength so they are all automattically displayed when the list box is clicked?
I have template designer form with scroll bar and maximized mode in MID form. Now, when I click on any of the item of ListBox placed at the the middle of the form, form automatically scrolls to the selected item. Is there any way to prevent auto scrolling?
just looking for more information really as tutorials on the net seem to be lacking on this one. What would you use to fill out a form on a web page automatically? what syntax?
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?
Im trying to create a small program using the "toaster popup effect". I have the working. My problem is , i have a basic webpage here ( http://www.pro-coders.com/latestthreads.php ) that displays all the recent threads thats created on my forum, so i want to make this popup when theres a new thread to alert the users.How could i code it to automatically detect if a new thread has been posted from the webpage ?
I am using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition and I am trying to set a listbox so it starts to scroll when it hits the middle point of what is viewable on my list. I also want to set it so the list is always visable so you when you reach the bottom of the list you can scroll down to the bottom but if you scroll back up once it reaches that middle point it will start to scroll up again.
"Automatic Image-scroller". The scenario is quite simple. I've got one single picture, and it should move up and when it moves out of frame, the same picture would appear beneath itself and continue to move up. Kind of a loop.The problem is that i haven't got a single clue how to make it in code-behind nor XAML, but it has to written in "code-behind" cause of the things i'm hooking it up with.
Intent: To teach the user how to create a control that scrolls text at an adjustable speed across the control.What you'll need:Visual Studio.NET (2002 or 2003) - The version I built this with is 200325 Minutes of free timeI don't remember what prompted me to create this control, except that I was sitting at my desk one day and thought to myself?
1. First open the Visual Studio IDE.
2. Select 'New Project'.
3. From the project languages, select 'Visual Basic'.
4. From the project types, select 'Windows Control Library'.
5.Once the initial project has finished loading there's a couple of things that you may want to do first. The first one being, change the control name to something that means something. "UserControl1" just won't do, so in the 'Solution Explorer' right click on the "UserControl1.vb" file and click 'Rename'. Without removing the '.vb' file extension, type the name of the control. In this case lets call it 'ScrollingMarquee.vb'.
6. Now back to the control design area. Add a timer control to your project from the toolbox. Set the enabled property to 'True' and set the interval to 100. Right click on the control area (the actual control itself, not the timer) and click on 'View Code'. This will take you to the code area of project.
7. Enter the code as is written displayed below.
Code:Imports System.DrawingImports System.Drawing.Drawing2DImports System.ComponentModel Public Class ScrollingMarque Inherits System.Windows.Forms.UserControl #Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "
[code]....
Just want to make sure that each time we move the control or resize it,'it re-renders correctly.Invalidate()End SubEnd Class8.Next select 'Build -> Build ScrollingMarquee'.9. Once you have any bugs worked out (there shouldn't be any, but in case there are), you can change the build mode to release and rebuild the control for use in your projects.
