Open File In Default Browser?
Jul 21, 2010[URL]
My situation is a little different. In my VB.NET project, I have imported (or created) a website that is contained in a folder named SAHelp. The idea is to have a local website installed to the user's computer so when they click help, the file C:[installation path]SAHelpindex.htm will open in their default browser.
I can certainly make this work by publishing a website to the real internet such as: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.SomeDumbWebsite.com") which would act as my online help. But I want to bury this in my application.
Part 2: I'd like to detect if the user has an active internet connection:
If (User has Active Internet Connection) then
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.SomeDumbWebsite.com")
else

View 3 RepliesMake The Default Modelbinding Handle Lists?
Jul 9, 2011How do I make the default modelbinding handle Lists?
Let's say I have a ShoppingCart class, which has a ShoppingCartItem List:
Public Class ShoppingCart
Public Property CouponCode As String
Public Property Items As New List(Of ShoppingCartItem)
End Class
[Code]....
However, when I submit the page, no values are picked up, not even the CouponCode field. The model object is empty. What gives?
Ultimately, my goal is to add/remove items clientside via javascript and then have the modelbinder pick up the changes automatically when the page is submitted.
Update: I was just missing the Property keyword from my model properties declarations. It's too late, and I got to get some sleep. :)

Jul 1, 2010I want to achieve the following:
The user drags text from any open window not related to my application ( like firefox or word, for example) onto button1 on form1 in my application. when he/she does that, a new form (called form2 that contains a richtextbox) will open and the dragged text is directly copied (or inserted) into the richtextbox of the new form. button1 has allowdrop set to true. Beyond that I don't know how to proceed.
I tried:
e.effects = DragDropEffects.Copy
But it seems it is not enough.
