I am using a webbrowser control and loading a website that uses basic authentication. I pass the username and password in the additional header of the navigate routine. The problem is that the header is not retained while navigating the site.
I.E.I log into the site and pass the user name and password in the http header. When I click a link to access another page the header is removed and the site asks for credentials. If I was to just type the site into IE and log in the first time the headers are carried forward on all pages. how I can have the page retain the headers so the user never has to authenticate?
Dim sHeaders As String
Dim HelpBrowser As New WebBrowser
sHeaders = "Authorization: Basic: " & System.Convert.ToBase64String(System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("UserName:Password")) & Chr(13) & Chr(10)
Me.HelpBrowser.Navigate("http://www.mysite.com", True, Nothing, sHeaders)
I am working on a windows application using VB.net 2.0 and want to create a custom ComboboxControl which displays multiple groups. I was able to display the items in Custom combobox with headers. Below is the sample.
Header 1
Item 1_1
Item 1_2
[code]....
I want to prevent users from selecting the header items. I managed to revert back to the previously selected item if user selects the header item. Problem with this approach is drop down collapses and then reverts back to previously selected item. Is there a way to check, if the item being selected is a header item and if it is a header item, do not collapse the dropdown. Basically I want to implement behavior of HTML select list with optgroup.
1_1 1_2 1_3 2_1 2_2 2_3

What I'm trying to achieve is something similar to an Add-on called Live Http Headers used with Firefox. I'm not trying to get the Headers or cookies, but the links that load on the page itself. Let us assume I visited Mail.Yahoo.com, this is pretty much what you would see when I use the add-on.

I am currently working on a personal project with hopes of using VB.NET 2008 to connect to my personal forum for use of both authentications into the program and group changes. People in my forum are based on ranks, the ranks are organized via the groups in the forum so if one person gains a rank they need to be taken out of one group and placed into another. With multiple people this is a process and presents a security risk should someone get kicked out but accidently be left in a group giving them access.
For the time being, I need to be able to post the headers to the forum to login and parse the response. I have tried many times and I�m currently trying this using the chilkat dll as a reference which allows me to send headers and see the response, but the response is always the failure to login page.

i am working on a auto click program and it is working well apart from it goes slow because im using a web browser to visit the websites.
I heard i can use http request to vist websites ?
Im just using
WebBrowser1.Navigate(url)
Is there anyway i can edit that so it does a http request to (url) rather than get the web browser to go there ?
I have created a few months ago a simple tool in vb.net, that sends an xml code to server, and that server sends response after a while. Everything is performed in http session, for that purpose I use webbrowser control and webclient. I know it could have been solved in different way, however iam not an expert in vb.net, and also didnt want to spend too much time on it. Anyway it worked, until they had changed something on the server. Let me explain in a few words how that tool works, so it will be easier to understand the problem.
In the first part, I open an URL in the webbrowser control, subsequently I enter xml code in the textarea on that page and click on the submit button. In result of that I get another page with some data on it, namely links to xls files. In the next part I use webclient for downloading those files. What is important for all of these operations I need to use the same http session id.
So, simply by now, i just set headers in webclient - WebClient.Headers.Add("Cookie", WebBrowser1.Document.Cookie.ToString) What have guaranteed to use the same session id by the WebClient. However, after the change made on the server mentioned before, the JSESSIONID value is not available in that string. When I use https analyzer (fiddler), I can see that value there...until moment when I am using WebClient. Of course due to that fact, the webclient won't download files for me, because the session id is not the same.
There is one more thing, what would be useful. When I checked the cookies file on my harddrive, I saw that line starts like #HTTP_ONLY. I think that would cause that problem with jsessionid.
Now, I am coming to my question Do you have any idea, how I would get that JSESSIONID value ? It is sent from webbrowser control, however don't know how to get it.
I'm working with a custom system.windows.forms.WebBrowser control. I need to be able to fetch the html of the link that is beneath the mouse pointer. I've reasearched the Internet and found a promising method to carry out this task. The suggested method is to use mshtml.IHTMLCaret to get the cursor position then use IMarkupPointer to get the element in the current scope. I've scoured the Internet looking for an example of how to carry out the task using the method outlined above but have been unsuccessful. I've tried to figure it out myself using intellisense on mshtml, again - unsuccessful.
I've been stuck on this for 2 days now and I have to admit at this point that Do any of you have experience with using mshtml that get past this issue? Or do you know a another way to carry out the task?
I am writing a program that will search the hard drive for particular files. Once it's done, I'd like the results to display like a folder. For example: If I looked for log files in c: and c:Windows, I would want to put those files in a 'virtual directory' and be able to manipulate them -- as you would in Windows Explorer.
The only thing I can think of that is similar is the search companion, but this software must be compatible with Windows 7.
I know it is possible to display a real folder (i.e. c:windows) in the webbrowser control, but can you have your own virtual directory and only view files that you want in it?
What I am wanting is for randomly generated ip to be sent as the ip address to the webbrowser control instead of the real ip address.So evertime the webbrowser document requests for ip it will send that ip. Attributor 2.0

I'm trying to build a web application that uses an SSL connection. So I did some research and found out that I could use the RequireHttpsAttribute class to achieve what I needed.

I am writing a few web based apps which will require a webbrowser extension. I have already used the IE webbrowser control that uses the trident web rendering engine. I believe this is MSHTML.DLL? Anyway, some of the users of my programs have complained of a few things. Particularily,
1. It seems to be a slow browser, at least compared to other rendering engines out there (webkit and gecko are 2 known ones).
2. On the developer side, it seems to be low in features. The features are sufficient in most cases, but there are some "special" things that I need.
3. It has VERY low HTML (and especially HTML5) compliance.
My question is, how much work would it take to use a different engine (such as webkit .net, which I HAVE heard of) and be able to distribute it easily. Or, if you guys feel ambitious, we could try writing a brand new engine ourselves. I know how big of a job it is, and frankly, I have no clue where to begin. I would just like your thoughts and opinions on the matter.
