I am having some problems with Navigating to the same URL of the WebBrowser.I am trying to get an HtmlElement from the WebBrowser. This HtmlElement is a simple link ("href"). The link is shown on the site that I am navigating to, every hour for only 1 minute and than disappears.I want to check every 15 seconds if this link exists. So, I am doing a loop with a Timer and refresh the WB control.The problem that I encounter is when the WB control already navigated to the site that I wanted to check, it always navigate to the same page when refreshing. The links or the DocumentText are never changed, even if I enter Internet Explorer and see that it has been a change in the page.
I am trying to get position of html elements in a .net's webbrowser control and failing, i need the exact position of the element relative to the whole document or the webbrowser control to be able to send a mouse click using SendMessage() P/Invoke..I have tried the solution from here but it didn't work:getting absolute position of HTML element in webbrowser control with C#.I am guessing that is because the page relies on very complex ajax and css.the function "WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementFromPoint()" works just fine in getting the accurate html element, i just need the opposite of it.other wise, should i just keep on searching using "GetElementFromPoint()" until getting the correct element?
i have a form with webbrowser and browsed website with an html selectbox in website and i dont want the other <option> elements unless couple of them for easly filling the fields at every visitng
is there any control to remove unwanted html elements exist at string getting by GetElementbyid or somthing like that? so here is some of my code works fine on otherfields
I am working on a project that involves the editing of html of pages on the fly. I have put a webbrowser on the form, and I am able to retrieve the element under my mouse by using: wBrowser.Document.GetElementFromPoint(e.ClientMousePosition) in the Document.MouseClick event.However, I want the experience to be more intuitive, by placing a semi-transparent blue rectangle over whichever HtmlElement the mouse is currently hovering over. I created a borderless form with 20% opacity for this, which works great, except that I cannot for the life of me figure out how to calculate the screen coordinates of the element under my mouse. Here is what I have so far, but while the size is adjusted correctly, the location of the rectangle is just stuck at (0, 0) relative to my form. Highly annoying:

I am grabbing an HTMLElement from a browser object and then using getElementById to grab the element I want. When the element is grabbed into the HtmlElement object double quotes around attributes like <input type="checkbox" name="test1" /> becomes <input type=checkbox name=test1>.It is removing the double quotes and backslash from the HTML available in the HtmlElement. Is there anyway to get the HTML element from Visual Basic .NET code and keep the true HTML formatting?
I need to click an image in a webbrowser from a Windows Form in VS 2010.I can click ordinary links using code such as this one:
Private Sub Button14_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button14.Click Dim lnk As HtmlElement For Each lnk In Form2.WebBrowser1.Document.Links If lnk.InnerText = "the_text_of_the_link" Then
[code]....
When it comes to the second variation of the code I often get the following error message (exception):NullReferenceException was unhandled Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Basically - how do I tell it to click on it only if there are two separate and unique strings of html code in a html tag?
This is the button code in the html for a button on a webpage that displays more results. I tried to use the browser.invokemember but Im not getting any results back. Here is my
For Each element As HtmlElement In wb.Document.GetElementsByTagName("id") If element.GetAttribute("id") = "more" Then element.InvokeMember("click")
how can i make my webbrowser open up a new link in my same webbrowser or in another form? basically what im saying is i dont want it opening links in internet explorer.
Dim request As WebRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create("http:www.mysite.com/") Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse() Dim stream As Stream = response.GetResponseStream()
How can I get the html elements from it? (I DO NOT WANT TO USE WEBBROWSER CONTROL)
Then I will do something like...
For Each element As HtmlElement In XXXXXXXX ListBox1.Items.Add(element.GetAttribute("href")) Next
I'm using a WebBrowser control in VB.Net to load a website. At that point, the WebBrowser.Document.Images property returns a collection of HtmlElement that are considered images.
What I'm trying to do at this point, is take a particular HtmlElement that represents an image and turn it into a System.Drawing.Image so that I can manipulate it. But I can't figure out how.
I did try to search for an answer, but came up with nothing. 'WebBrowser', as it turns out, seems to be a really popular keyword.
EDIT: It's been suggested that I use the SRC attribute of the HtmlElement to download the image; but the image can be dynamic - meaning the image I download can be separate from the image on the website....so, that won't work for my purposes.
It seems that in previous versions of Visual Basic it was possible to convert a System.Windows.Forms.HtmlElement to the various System.Web.UI.HtmlControls but in 2008 I cannot seem to do this.What I am trying to do is convert HtmlElements that I got from a WebBrowser.Document into HtmlTableRow HtmlAnchor etc. to manipulate them but I cannot find a way to convert them in this version. I guess my questions are :1. Is it possible to convert a System.Windows.Forms.HtmlElement into one of the various ystem.Web.UI.HtmlControls ?2. If not, is there another way to cleanly manipulate tables and anchors etc. from a HtmlDocument without writing my own logic to find the tags etc
Is there some way I can iterate through all available attributes for a given html element something like: for each lo_Attrib as attribute in htmlElement.attributes .........
It won't work. It worked for me before, but now I can't get it to work again. I used the .OuterHtml command to view the line of code, and it assigned the value perfectly. However, it still won't display in the webbrowser. This is the code from the webpage I'm working with:
<textarea style="width: 95%; height: 350px;" name="entry[body]" id="entryBody">text inserted here
I have this code which should change a password field into a text field in a webbrowser so that a user can see it:[code]Can anyone find a reason why this is not working, or find a better code to do it?
I was just trying to create something and I found a little code on the web. When I pasted it it got 8 errors, and I could get rid of 5. The other three; I have no idea... It returns an error ('Value' is not a member of System.Windows.Forms.HtmlElement'). How should I fix this? The code is:
I am trying to insert text into a text area in a webpage using the following code:
Dim webTextArea As New HTMLTextAreaElement WebTextArea = Main.WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("name of web text area").DomElement WebTextArea.value = "text to be inserted"
I have given reference to Microsoft HTML in COM (am using VB 2008)
"Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.HtmlElement' to type 'mshtml.IHTMLElement'."
I want to retrieve all the properties like the class name, html id of every object in the web browser. I am getting the above exception when i try to direct cast it.[code]...
