Im using:
For Each ClientControl As HtmlElement In wb.Document.Links

I'm just curious as to how some software programs that I see out there have the ability to extract links & text from thousands of web pages at an extremely high and fast rate. Has anyone here, ever created a link or text extracting program the has the ability to parse many webpages and return data into a textbox? I know how to extract links via the webbrowser control, but it doesn't seem to parse/extract data at a very high & fast rate like many email, link & text extracting programs that I see out there.

I'm trying my hand at making a program that crawls some of the larger retail sites for prices of products in a single category, TV for example. With Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Newegg, none of them are an issue so far because I can call the site using httpwebrequest and parse with regex.The one that has me completely stumped is Target. If you check this link: url...You can see that there is a grid of all the TVs they sell. The problem is that the links are not part of the original page as they do not appear when you view the source code. As far as I can tell, they're called in by some Javascript code when you load the page.From what I've gathered, loading this final content via httpwebrequest is impossible. So how are pages like this crawled? Would a workaround involve using built in webbrower tool in vb.net? That seems clunky to me. Anyone point me in the right direction
View 1 Repliesmy webbrowser navigates to a webpage. I need to store all the links into a collection, I did find the code to do the job (on this forum) and it works, but there is a problem: there are more links on the page than those the code reads, like when i right click on a picture and choose "copy shortcut" I get a link that is not showing when I display the "view source" for the entire page. I can't figure out how to do it.
View 3 Repliesi want to be able to get all links from the current webpage, and then take the ones that have a certain part of the url. How can i do this. Basically I want to:

3) Put those links in a textbox.
I know how to do number 3, but how can I do number 1 and 2?
I'm trying to write a function that can retrieve all the links from a webpage. I'd like to send only a string containing the URL. Basically, given a string of a URL, I'd like to "load" that into an HTMLDocument so I can access the Links collection. I just can't figure out that part.I've already written the function by using the Document in a WebBrowser. But, after selecting a link, I'd like to get its links, and so, and so on....while the user is still browsing the first page.

I'm trying to get my program to go to the memberlist.php of a phpBB2 forum and gather all the links to the members websites.
Example: [URL]
I want the program to go to that website and save all of the websites (the ones that have the "www" image) to a list inside the program. I have no idea how to do this, but that's not all, considering most forums have several pages of members (this one has 32 at the moment) it has to go through all of the pages and gather all the links from every page..
I can't figure out how to make my web browser open links in a new page or tab instead of IE. I've tired at least a dozen different sets of code. None of them can be manipulated to fit my browser. When my browser first starts, there's an empty tab control. I put a new webbrowser in it at runtime and set it's dock to fill. I create new instances of the browser for new tabs as well. I just can't find how to make it open links in new windows.
