View 37 RepliesI've got a webbrowser. It's prettey advanced, given that I've spent quite a lot of time coding it, and here is my code which will get the Favicon of the current website when a the webbrowser has finished navigating:
frmBrowser.BrowserTabs.SelectedTab.Icon = Controller.GetFavicon(Me.Url.Host & "/favicon.ico")
Sometimes, a user has switched tabs before the webbrowser has finished navigating. So my question is: Is there any way in which I can determine what tab the favicon belongs to and set it to that tab, rather than just setting the favicon to the selected tab?
I'm making a tabbed browser and I want to get favicons in the tabs. I have a picturebox by the address bar that shows it just fine, but I want it in the tabs also. The tabs are owner drawn. Can I use the image key to display the favicon? If so, how? I've tried drawing the image in, but it draws it to every tab instead of just the one. Is there any way around this?

View 1 RepliesI am using VB.Net 2008 Express and trying to build a favorites list for a webbrowser I am working on.I get an invalid parameter error on the line that reads favicon = image.FromStream(stream).[code]the urls are stored in an array after they are taken from an xml file.I checked the url that was being used when the error occurs and it seems fine. I can even navigate to it in IE.The error I get is that "stream" is an invalid parameter, at least that is where it points to.It also shows that stream is a type System.NET.ConnectStream.Stream was originally set to System.IO.Stream.I don't know if this is a problem but it processes several urls before it gets to this one.I am wondering if this may be a permissions issue and the site is blocking the WebRequest or if it is something else.

1. I have Combobox with 3 urls in there ( Facebook.com Tagged.com and Bebo.com )
2. I have a Form2 with webbrowser
3. I have a Button when clicked it should open up my form 2 and preview of the website which I selected in my combobox in form1
All I'm trying to do is when I select lets say facebook in my form 1 and click load it should open up my form 2 with facebook website in it.[code]Now when I click my button in form 1 it will load Form2 ( named Explorer1) but my form2 is not showing me facebook or tagged page for some reason
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.
View 2 RepliesI have this protocol for getting a favicon: (I stole it from Thomas Maxwell, and adapted it, but still)
Public Shared Function GetFaviconSilent(ByVal IconURL As String)
On Error Resume Next
Dim oIcon As Icon
[code].....
Well my problem is so far the favicon shows up. But some sites don't have one and what i want is for a picture box to become visible when that happens.But i can't get the code to work (i suck at coding no surprise there).[code]Problem is it doesnt work. What happens on sites that dont have a favicon is that the last favicon loaded is the favicon of that site without a favicon.

View 1 Repliesi have a problem with a webservice written in VB.NET. my intensions are to display a fontlist in a website. since the code i found only works in IE (look in HTML forum for the script) i was thinking of a webservice (since i already worked with this. look in PHP forum for more details). while coding i got this code:

how to display and interact with a website, at the moment its just research on how to go about it. Once i start i may need some more assistance. But for now just research At the moment Ive came up with using WebClient and HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse to interact with website data. And i know VB.net has an inbuilt site viewer (just a wrapper for IE).The website im using is an Intranet page for doing VOIP calls. It uses a large collection of JS(jQuerry) mostly. I can probably get the dev to make a .php file to
<?php
print_r($_GET); Prints all GET variables in a quite readable manner.
print_r($_POST); Prints all POST variables in a quite readable manner.
?>
to find out what GET's and POST's there are, but I'm not sure if JS stuff gets put in as a GET or a POST as its in the DOM.So all in all,I'm wanting to make a "Desktop" variant of there client. So basicly just a viewer of the dial pad. And detection of new calls in the queue, things like that. So i want to read data from the website, display the dialpad(just showing a segment of the website) and send the request to accept a call(and maybe a few other small pieces of data).
Whats the code to make the picturebox become the favicon of the website in the navigation textbox?
I found this code but it's for non-tabbed webbrowser.How would you change it to work for a Tabbed Webbrowser?[code]...
I want to create a file upload client for uploading.com and I wanted to know if it is possible to make an application that lets you select a file from your hard drive, press an upload button and then the app will process it just like the website processes the file when you use a browser.Also I want the app to display the progress bar that the website displays when you upload, and when it's done, it has to get the URL for the uploaded file and display it in a textbox.Why not just use the website you ask? Well, I'm planning to make this into a bigger app but nothing will really work unless I get this to work first, so I have to start here.

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to recreate this feature for a twitter control program using VB Studio 2008. I want the users to be able to sign up their account in my application so they don't have to go to the site and do it.
Because captchas are dynamic images, I cannot pull the image from a src file. I'm pretty new to vb.net so, how would I initiate a session, with the webbrowser control or webclient, and be able to display the captcha image for that session on my form.
I have project that Login to a website but need to display a captcha to login.The problem is that the captcha isn't it a static image.It have a dynamic link ( "code.php" ) that shows an image with the captcha.But when navigating in Webbrowser the capctha in picturebox is different.I have some links that imported to a listbox.I want to navigate them all within X seconds.Lets say I want it to navigate each link 60 seconds.[code]

I have tried a few things like converting HTML to XML and then using an XML navigator to get input elements but I get lost whenever I start this process.What I am trying to do is to navigate to a website which will be loaded using textbox1.text.Then download the html and parse out the input elements like . username, password, etc and place the element by type (id or name) into the richtextbox with the attribute beside the name.[code]Any clues or how to properly execute an HTML to XML conveter, reader, parser?

View 5 RepliesBut, I'm trying to make a fairly simple program that will log into a website(for now that's all I want it to do).
Currently I have: A 2 Text Boxes, Web Browser, And a button.
I have the ID's of the Username and Password fields on the site, I just need to know how to get the info to the fields.
So I grab a source from an url in vb, and as expected it lists everything written in there. My interest lies in the info that resides outside of the tags in the code. And that stuff gets updated daily, so they're not static strings eitherm here, I've been able to filter out all the tags, and grab everything outside them, and show em in a messagebox, but somehow it picks up every line change, that's essentially an empty character, and lists those as well. We hit our heads together with a couple of friends but we couldn't work out why.Also, I've tried modifying it to find different stuff, but somehow everytime I try something different the system gets screwed up and it finds no results. But that's just because I'm such a buffoon with the code.
