Is webbrowser.navigate method is synchronous or asynchronous?
example:
dim ct as integer =0
dim counter as integer =0
ct+=1
wbb.navigate(""http://www.yahoo.com")
counter+=1
will counter get increased after firing webbrowser.document completed event?
I would like for my program to navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines and multiple url links inside of it. I know how to make the webbrowser1.navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines, however I want my webbrowser to navigate to each url every 1-1.5 seconds once button1 is clicked. Yes, my webbrowser1 will navigate to the specified urls via the textbox1.text (multilines) with a button click, but I need the webbrowser1 to navigate in a order sequence from top to bottom of Textbox1.text (multiplelines) every 1 second. Here is the current code that I have to navigate via multilined textbox1.text control in order sequence:

I have a webbrowser on my windows form and a text box above that with a go button. The webrowser is a search page.Is what I would like to do is type something in the textbox and hit GO and it will search for that word in the webbrowser.The search is setup to where if you were to set the url as it would bring up the results for "keyword"Is there a way with the navigate function to do something like.[URL]..basically I need a way to append the text from the textbox at the end of the url.

This does not do what I thought it would do..I think that the problem is that when it sees System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000) everything stops for 5 secs .How can I make it go to google.com and then after 5 seconds, yahoo?
I made a quick Web browser that I only want to show one page when you press a button ( you have to enter a name into a textbox and it will then make the URL to show), but the page has some links on it, which I don't want people to click on.
1) Disable the hyperlinks
2) Disable left clicks in the browser
3) Make the browser somehow only visible and not actually interactive with a mouse
I tried something like
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
WebBrowser1.AllowNavigation = True
[code]....
Which I assumed would allow navigation once you clicked the button, but would then not allow it once you are done clicking it, but it just stays at false.
I am making a webbrowser, can somebody tell me how to prevent my browser from opening new IE windows. Because what happens is, there are some links that will open new windows and therefore IE comes in place because it is set as default windows browser which I really don't want because my browser looks really bad if it opens links in another webbrowser. I want it to be just a basic browser, it has only one window, and it should navigate within that window. This is because the browser is integrated in a bigger application only for some website applications that are related to this main application.
View 3 RepliesI have a simple program with a web browser control and a button that causes it to navigate to a certain web page, as well as an input and another button for entering a url directly.Everything was working fine until I started messing with the document completed event in the control.The form loads a url initially and after that 80% of the time it freezes when clicking the button or entering a new url. I deleted the document completed code and now it still freezes a majority of the time.
View 12 RepliesI have a problem to enter a web site by program and not manually. I just navigated WebBrowser1 to a web site. After the navigation there is a button in the site. The button will send me to a link if I will click on him. I got the link path (After calling to a Sub doing it) in a String call SitePath. Now after I got the button's path I tried to navigate the WebBrowser again to the new path. But, the WebBrowser navigates again to the same Web Page The Site do not let me to enter the link by program only manually when I click on the button. Is there a way to click on this button by program or other way to enter the path?

I need to make an asynchronous call to a method which for the sake of simplicity counts from 1 to 100. If an exception is thrown during the methods counting process, lets say at 50 I need to stop the methods execution, dispose of a few objects and restart it at 51 but have no idea how to go about it.I basically need to raise an event from the method to the main thread and restart the asynchrounous method.
View 3 RepliesVB.NET 2010, .NET 4/I have a System.Timers.Timer object that does some work on its elapsed event:
Private Sub MasterTimer_Elapsed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs) Handles MasterTimer.Elapsed
MasterTimer.Enabled = False
'...work...
MasterTimer.Enabled = True
End Sub
My problem is that the work that it's doing sometimes gets stuck. Part of the work is serial communication so it might be getting stuck waiting for a response from something. I've already modified my serial communication code a bit to hopefully solve the problem. However, this timer is basically the heartbeat of a production control application and it is very bad if it were to stop for any reason. I was thinking that it might be nice to put in a fail-safe timeout so that, if the "work" is taking too long, the timer could re-enable itself and try again. I was thinking of something like this:Move the work into a subroutine and create a delegate:
Private Delegate Sub WorkDelegate()
Private Sub Work()
'...work...
End Sub
Call the work by invoking the delegate and then use WaitOne(timeout) on the IAsyncResult to specify a timeout:
Private Sub MasterTimer_Elapsed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs) Handles MasterTimer.Elapsed
MasterTimer.Enabled = False
Dim workDel as New WorkDelegate(AddressOf Work)
[code]....
In that it would re-enter a subroutine that is already running? Is there a way to abort Work() if it hasn't finished after the timeout? In other words, just cease execution of Work() if result.IsCompleted Is False after WaitOne?

I just have a simple vb.net website that need to call a Sub that performs a very long task that works with syncing up some directories in the filesystem (details not important).
When I call the method, it eventually times out on the website waiting for the sub routine to complete. However, even though the website times out, the routine eventually completes it's task and all the directories end up as they should.
I want to just prevent the timeout so I'd like to just call the Sub asynchronously. I do not need (or even want) and callback/confirmation that it ran successfully.[code]...

In Visual Studio, when you right-click a method call, you go to the implementation of that method inside a class except if you access this method through an interface: in that case you go to the interface method not to the actual implementation.Is there a way / tips (key shortcut or anything) to access this actual implementation ? Otherwise you are stuck to add some comment just to remember where you did implement it that's really not productive and error prone !
Update: interesting answers but I'm not really satisfied because all are cumbersome. I will give a precise example:
IInterface iInterface = someObject;
iInterface.someMethod();

I'm working on a webcrawler in VB.net, and using the System.Forms.WebBrowser object for handling navigation on sites that use javascript or form posts, but I'm having a problem. When I navigate backwards (WebBrowser.GoBack()) to a page that was loaded with a form post, the page has expired and I have to do a refresh to resend the request. When I call a refresh (WebBrowser.Refresh()), a dialog box pops up to confirm. Is there a way I can get around this modal dialog in code?

View 14 RepliesI based a lot of my project on your Codebank submission for navigating web pages. I have ran into the problem a few times where it would stop navigating. You had recommended deleting the Interop files and rebuilding the solution. I have done this and it used to work just great afterwards (I was deleting all Interops and AxInterops in the Bin/Debug and Obj folders)I now have a strange case where it compiles and builds and navigates as expected on the computer I coded it on, but when I install it on another machine, it fails to navigate again. I made certain it worked directly before building and that I used the correct setup file but nothing I seem to do now cna make it navigate on the second machine. What else should I check?

In my program I am trying to make a combobox that when the user hits enter it will navigate the web browser to the site address that the user entered into the combobox. I tried this code:
If Keys.Enter Then
WebBrowser1.Navigate(ComboBox1.Text)
And then when I debugged the program and tried it out, the web browser did nothing.
I'm guessing there is a really simple answer to this but i've spent the best part of 2 days trying to get it to work and cannot figure it out.Basically, I want is the webbrowser to point to a local folder on a machine. A different one depending on who is logged on. The code I have so far is as follows.
Imports System.IO
Public Class frmFav
Private Sub frmFav_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim username As String
[code]....
I cannot get the URL value of the webbrowser (FavProgs) to take the value of directoryname. If I set the URL value in the properties for FavProgs it does what I want it to do perfectly.
