I have checked out the webpage manipulation on VBForums but it did not help me in this case because this textbox is not part of a form.Okay so basically i need to be able to add text to the textbox where you type in your bid on eBay and then send the enter key to submit the form that i can't see (so just the enter key)

how to do put text into that field.
In the past, I used the code below to fill out a form field using the webbrowser control in VB.Net. The page I am working with doesn't have name field for the inputbox, so my code doesn't work. How would I fill out the input box defined at the bottom of this post in bold?[code]...

View 2 RepliesI have a pretty good understanding of VB.NET. Basically I'm trying to fill in the password to login to a school website, but for some reason it won't fill the value in. The closest that I've come is getting the password to appear on screen, but it's not masked with asterisks and when I click login it says invalid password. It's almost as if it edits the label right before the text box for the password.
Here's a section of the html code from the login page:
HTML
<FORM ACTION="/pls/PROD/twbkwbis.P_ValLogin" METHOD="POST" NAME="loginform" AUTOCOMPLETE="OFF">
<TABLE CLASS="dataentrytable" SUMMARY="This data entry table is used to format the user login fields">
<TR>
<TD CLASS="delabel" scope="row" ><LABEL for=UserID><SPAN class=fieldlabeltext>UID:</SPAN></LABEL></TD>

The textbox that has the NAME="PIN" is the value I wish to change. Here is some of the code that I have tried where webMain is a WebBrowser VB.NET control. This doesn't work, but does display the unmasked password:
Dim passwordTextBox As HtmlElement = webMain.Document.GetElementById("PIN")
passwordTextBox.InnerText = txtWingsPIN.Text
The webpage [URL]
If a "web page" is more of a "Web App", meaning it is more of an "application" in a web browser, is it still possible to fill forms and stuff? I have come across a pretty huge hurdle in my fight for automation and it involves filling in a "service ticket" submission thing that is browser-based. I can view the source code of the page, but it doesn't look like normal HTML and the first screen of it has a username and password box, but there is no mention of either in the page's source code.
View 25 RepliesI'm getting spotty results trying to build a procedure that queries Yahoo finance, retrieves a stock quote and then passes the HTML body contents to a text variable. Using a WebBrowser control, it works in a 2 step fashion, using a textbox to input the symbol and a button to trigger navigation. After the WebBrowser window fills, I can pull the contents out of the browser window. In this case, it's just one number to keep things simple. The working code appears below:

I am using a WebBrowser-Control to fill in a webform and then click at a button, this currently results in a standard Download File Dialog (you get these if you download a file using internet explorer), but instead, I have to catch this file and save it automatically with a by me defined name to a specific folder.I am trying to code a little application in vb.net which download the Export-file from my wordpress-blog, and I want to do this completely without user-interaction.Currently everything works, except the downloading of the file.I tried to catch it with the event System.Windows.Controls.WebBrowser.Navigating(ByVal Object, ByVal System.Windows.Navigation.NavigatingCancelEventArgs) but I don't see where to download the file from?
View 3 RepliesI have a Form that has some Labels and Buttons on the left side and a WebBrowser on the right. I would like to let the WebBrowser fill the rest of the Form when it is resized. Resizing of the Form works, but the WebBrowser always has a distance of approximatel 150-200 pixels from the border of the Form. I'd prefer it to fill the form up straight to the borders of it. Can anyone give me a hint on how to change that behavior?
Another thing I couldn't figure yet is how to get the form to show a Scrollbar when it gets so small that the labels and buttons on the left get out of the form.
I would like for my program to navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines and multiple url links inside of it. I know how to make the webbrowser1.navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines, however I want my webbrowser to navigate to each url every 1-1.5 seconds once button1 is clicked. Yes, my webbrowser1 will navigate to the specified urls via the textbox1.text (multilines) with a button click, but I need the webbrowser1 to navigate in a order sequence from top to bottom of Textbox1.text (multiplelines) every 1 second. Here is the current code that I have to navigate via multilined textbox1.text control in order sequence:

how do i activate a textbox in the webbrowser control? I have this code to navigate to the webpage but it does send the keys since the textbox in the webbrowser is not activated:
View 1 RepliesI am having one heck of an issue with a webbrowser control I am using. As part of my job, I am working on creating a tool to automate an older system that we still use. The part that is being automated is web-based, and the group running the automation does not have access to any automation tools like QTP. In order to give them something they can use, the idea was to build an application just for them. In this application, I have everything working perfectly, with the exception of the most important part: the entry of a policy number. The policy number goes into a textbox, and then the user presses a button. A part of the automation sequence involves the use of a timer.
If I manually navigate to the appropriate page and put the .SetAttribute statement in a button action on my form, it works perfectly fine. However, if I put the .SetAttribute statement anywhere that is being controlled by the timer ticking, it does not work.So, this works:
Private Sub btnTest_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnTest.Click
Me.wbPrestige.Document.Window.Frames("WORKSPACE").Document.GetElementById("policynumber").SetAttribute("value", "1234567")
End Sub
but this does not:
Private Sub timerLoad_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles timerLoad.Tick
Select Case currentStatus
Case Status.wait_for_retrieving
[code]....
As a note, I do not have the Select statement in the Tick action; I have it in its own little sub. However, since it functions the same way no matter where it is, and to save space, I combined everything here. Also, at the time of the timer firing and setting things into motion to enter the policy number, the page is already fully loaded, so I don't think it is an issue with that, though I could be wrong.
It does not throw an error. The "1234567" above is passed in as a string, and doing a watch on it at run-time does show that the value is actually in there. It just seems like the .SetAttribute is not registering on the textbox. I have tried a few things ranging from "what-if" all the way to "that-is-so-dumb-it-just-might-work." Nothing seems to do the trick. I have tried sleeping everything for a few seconds just to see if there was an issue there. I have tried issuing the .SetAttribute command a few times in a row thinking it just wasn't taking the first time. Since setting .Focus() didn't seem to work for it, I even went so far as using SendKeys to move focus to the textbox on one attempt and API calls for mouse clicks (to click inside of the textbox) on another attempt. As a last crazy attempt, I had the Select statement doing a .PerformClick on btnTest (which works if I navigate to the page manually).
I am attempting to send a string to a textbox in the webbrowser control and the page I am trying to do this with has random name= and value= fields which makes it difficult to use the typical methods for placing text in the textbox. I have spent quite a bit of time searching and attempting to figure this out and I'm stumped.

View 4 Repliesi have a form with a textbox, a button and a webbrowser.
I want whatever is in the textbox to be inserted into the webbrowsers textarea, like a form.
HTML
<textarea name="proxylist" class="textarea defaultTextActive" cols="22" rows="11">
I'm attempting to load a website, look through the HTML, and then put it into a control.When I do this, the site redirects to another page. I know how to pull the info, so I need to figure out how to get to my destination page. I'll break it down in steps:
1. Attempt to load www.site.com/1
2. If cookie is not on machine, site redirects to www.site.com/zip code.
2b. Enter Zip code
3. Attempt to load destination site again.
4. Page redirects to www.site.com/default.aspx
5. Attempt to load www.site.com/1
6. Success
If the cookie is already on the machine, it skips to step 3. No matter what, it always loads the default.aspx page first. This isn't a webbrowser control issue, it's a site issue. This happens when on a normal browser.I'd hate to say it's bad coding standards just because it's not working because I want it to, but it sure seems like bad coding standards.
okay so in webbrowser1 is there any way to grab text from it's textbox like say i go to google and type something in the textbox hit send can i grab the text from that textbox ?
