VS 2008 - Code Requires The Webbrowser - Can Sendkeys Something Onto A Website Form ?
May 8, 2012
My code requires the webbrowser to be up so I can sendkeys something onto a website form. For some reason, changing the attribute doesn't work with this website. When I'm doing other task, such as web browsing or something else, the following code works occassionally.
AppActivate("xyz")
WebBrowser1.Focus()
Is it possible to sendkeys to a website form in the background? This would be the ideal solution. What other command do I need to consistently pull up my application into the foreground?

I was hoping you would be able to help me out. I want to automate a process on a website, through my program.I want to do sendkeys to a web browser component, and also be able to focus on links and click them.Here is what I want:the browser is by default on page 1.there are a bunch of links on page 1, but i want the program to automatically click the link with inner html that says "Link 3". Next, i want the program to wait for the next page to load, then find another link. Finally, I want the program to focus in on a textbox, type some data, then click a submit button, which takes the browser back to page 1. I want this process to keep looping over and over again. Can anybody help me with the functions involved in waiting for a page to load then finding a link based on its html?

The programing I am creating requires window captions for SendKeys. Some windows hide their captions and I want to be able to use Spy++ or create my own way of getting the caption. All I want from Spy++ is Finder Tool, is there anyway of just taking that from Spy++ or how would I go about creating it?

For the past couple of days I have been using Visual basic 2008 and learning it.Anyway, I am trying to make a login form that will login to a website with WebBrowser control.and I am noticing that the webbrowser is extremly slow, it takes him about 20 seconds to load a page while mozilla opens it in a moment, why is that?

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?

I need my application to go to a website, press a button on the website to get data, and then get the data that it shows all without the user seeing the webbrowser control. I'm doing this for a little project. The user could normally just go to the site and press the button themselves, but that would take to long. So how do you programmatically do this?

I am using sendkeys because I believe a webform I want to fill possibly use javascript to detect whether someone submits the form. My code doesn't seem to do anything,
WebBrowser1.Document.Forms.Item(1).GetElementsByTagName("INPUT").Item("selectorReconnect").SetAttribute("checked", "-1")
Dim textArea As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.All("greconnect")

At the moment I have this to change focus of an element:
SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
Instead of using that I was wondering if I could do something like this:
WebBrowser1.Document.All("id").InvokeMember("click")
But to get focus to the next element in line, like the next one from the current focused item.

I have been trying to make a IM spammer (Yes, before you flame this is not a 4 item spammer with a start/stop and 1 timer and 1 text box.) I have been testing methods to "expand" the term "IM Spammer" when people mention VB with it. While I have doing many small things (Just some simple add-ons etc. etc.) thats not important. I have been trying to go back to basics and edit some "SendKeys.Send" code. currently I have been useing the basic...

What is the difference between SendKeys.SendWait and SendKeys.Send?Send obviously will just send they key immediately, but does SendWait actually wait for the message to be processed or does it also send it immediately?The function's name itself is just confusing. Which one should I use if I want to send keystrokes to a 3rd party app immediately, or is there no difference? To me, a few milliseconds is a big difference.

The first "submit" type has a "Free user" value in the HTML doc. That explains the Exit For.the HTML:

While CheckBox1.Checked = True

That is the code, the error is "SendKeys is a type and cannot be used as an expression."

I have been trying to use the WebBrowser control to access a website, nothing fancy involved, just a Security Certificate error message I can't get around:
The site that I've been trying to access is [URL].. By clicking on the "Login" hyperlink you are taken to a https connection.Internet Explorer simply allows you to click on the "Continue to this website (not recommended)" link which displays the Logon screen.Clicking on the same link in a WebBrowser control simply reloads the page as (I assume) WebBrowser has not been told that the page is ok.
I've tried looking around for the solution with no luck, it seems like such a simple problem..

What I want is: To scan a website every 15 mins or so, (craigslist in this case), and email myself any new posts that come up. I know I need to use WebClient, but I never used that before. Another question would be how to only email when a new post is up and not receive the same email every 15 mins.

recently I've been going through some website login automation and ended up with creating a simple my own browser quite happily, to open websites and login straight away.
But I found out that I can't automate some of the websites I was going for, because the html code of the login forms is not shared and cannot be seen in the source.So I'll give you guys a couple of websites I can't deal with and please advice if it is possible to do stuff with them:[URL]...
