I'm trying to make it so one can search the title of a song:
Let's say 50 Cent - Many Men.
One hits search, and it searches certain mp3 sites for the song, collects the names of the file name to be downloaded from certain sites, drops them into the listbox, and one can right click the song title extracted in the listbox & click download or save.
I want to automatically grab all names from WebBrowser1s site.
Here is the code example:
<a href="/game.php?village=108654&screen=info_player&id=6111448">Text for grab</a>
The program must find all contents from WebBrowsers1's website's code 'Text for grab' between > and < Then it'll separate every content with ';' and space and paste it into TextBox1.
A new journey, A new problem. As I downloaded VS2010 Today, there's a new UI, New Code, new problems.
Now I looked for a code that seemed to work for the VS2008, I found the one .Paul made, but it sure didn't work for me. Is there anyone who managed this on the new 2010? Please tell me.
If there were any confusion what I really wanted, I'll explain.

I decided it's time to migrate from VB6 to VB.NET and am currently translating my radio player but have run into several issues so I might be on this forum for the rest of the day... Anyway, in VB6 I used Inet to get the source of a PHP page that had the current song that was playing on the SHOUTcast stream. I can't seem to get Inet to work and figured I would just look for another method so I wouldn't need to pack msinet.ocx along with the finished product.
How can I get the source of the PHP page and store it in a variable or textbox/label.
I'm trying VB.Net 2010 in w7 on my new 64-bit PC. Thought I'd start with a media player. My problem is the exception that arises when I search for all MP3s on a drive. How do I get around/deal with the System.UnauthorizedAccessException' exception? A quick sub-program that I've written to illustrate the problem is:

View 9 RepliesI am currently setting up my own media player and so far there is only one thing that is making me very unhappy/frustrated. I have searched google so much and still couldn't find the solution. Here is my problem. I'm trying to import MP3s into a ListBox and have that as my playlist using this code:
For Each Song As String In Import.FileNames
playlist.items.add(Song)
Next
The only problem with this code is that it displays the song's full path in the list box. What I'm trying to do is just bring in the name of the MP3 without showing the path and still have the song play.

I have created an ASP.NET Website using VB.NET ASP.NET 4.0. Thing is, I want my visitors to hear some nice piano music as they browse my site. Now I don't know how to embed and play mp3s on an ASP.NET Website. So I need help with that.Further, if the website visitor changes pages, music should pick up where it left off before the page change. how to do this?
View 1 RepliesI already have code to read ID3v1 and v2 tags. That's not the problem. I open an IOStream, locate the ID3v2 header and pull the bytes out. Handling unicode was a bit of a sod, but I got it working.
What I don't understand is how to remove an ID3v2 tag or write one out. ID3v1 is easy - just truncate the file, then append some bytes. Simple. But ID3v2 tags don't have to be at the start of the file, do they? It's conventional, but by no means mandatory. If I just crop the entire ID3 out of the file, and close the gap, will that work? And then, to write my own tags, should I just write the bytes to the front of the file? Or do I need to update other bits of the file so the player will know where the audio data has moved to?
Also, do I need to use unsynchronisation? How can I tell if I need to?
I've looked on CodeProject; I've googled; and I've read the specification on id3.org - which, by the way, is less than clear! For example, it says that the "Extended header size" can be 6 or 10 bytes in length. So um....how am I supposed to know which one? Is there some magic way of determining how many bytes this value is being stored as?

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a program to catalog MP3s (I know, it's a tired thing that's been done to death), and want a better way to determine if a file has previously been added to my database. I have two datasets that are structurally identical. The first dataset is populated from the database and the second is populated via the application during the scan.
I then compare each record in the second dataset to the first with the following code:
Private Sub CompareDataSets(ByVal dsOriginal, ByVal dsNew)
Dim dv As DataView
Dim sFileName As String
Dim sPath As String
Dim bgFileSize As Long
[CODE]...
This method seems terribly inefficient and I'd much prefer being able to do a join of sorts off the two datasets and delete all records from the application populated dataset where there is a match.

The form it is on is frmMidwest.vb, the database is MarchMadnessDB, with the table being tblMidwest and the column being Username. I am trying to get it so when the user loads frmMidwest.vb it will then check the database to see if the user has entered their picks and if they have it will load their picks back into frmMidwest.vb if the database cannot find their user then it needs to add a record to the database and allow the user to enter their picks. I have already established this with
TblMidwestBindingSource.AddNew()
But if the user exists I do not want them to be able to enter another record. The primary key in the database is the username.

The user inputs a serial number in a form, the program searches a specified text file on the internet for that serial number, and if it is there then the program runs normally, but if not it exits. I already know how to do the trial part of this program and I know that this is not secure as someone could just hack it and find the text file and read the numbers, however this is for school and is not commercial. The only thing I need to know is how to search a text file for exact text that has been inputted by the user. I've been trawling the internet and I've heard of something called instr or something, but I'm not sure.
View 3 RepliesI have code that is producing the end result I desire but has a few clunky issues I dont like. I'm wondering if I'm simply using the wrong control or am using the tablelayoutpanel incorrectly.The tablelayoutpanel has 4 rows and 1 column.
The rows are filled with:
Row 1: header information
Row 2: search information
Row 3: a datagridview displaying the search results
Row 4: a label for displaying messages
Rows 1, 2 and 4 are set to absolute size. Row 3 is set to 100%.What I want is to have row 2 not appear until a user clicks a button in row 1. I was able to achieve it using the following
Public Class Form1
Private _searchRowHeight As Integer = 72
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
[code]....
I want the search row to be hidden by default. To do this I am calling the ToggleSearchPanel routine when the form loads. That's minor and I could probably live with it. The other issue is that have to store the height of the panel height manually so that I can later restore the panel size. That is truly bothersome since any change in the designer means that I have to remember to also set my variable to the new height.
I have a HTML code in my RichTextBox:
<b>
<i>
Text

I use this code to search a text between two tags, example <b>,</b>.
StartCode = InStr(1, MyString, "<b>")
EndCode = InStr(1, MyString, "</b>") - 3
RichTextBox1.Text = (Mid(MyString, StartCode, EndCode - StartCode))
Now i want use that:
StartCode = InStr(1, MyString, "<b> ???NewLine??? </i>")
EndCode = InStr(1, MyString, "</i></b>") - 3
RichTextBox1.Text = (Mid(MyString, StartCode, EndCode - StartCode))
Now instead of ?NewLine? what should I enter?
