View 2 RepliesI developed a WebBrowser which loads a certain web-site for me. The next task, I would like to see only a certain info on that web-site which acts like a table serving as special informational news for me. So, I don't want another things to be appear on my loaded web-site. I need to hide html elements, so that don't appear on my loaded web-site. So, then the form will be like smaller and it will be more convenient to use. Maybe, I need also to hide or remove some java scripts. Do you have any recommendations for it?
View 3 RepliesI have the following "contact" data (exampled below) stored in an xml file.I've created a frmContacts windows form and placed a list box control inside it.I'm new to the list box but plan to have the users manage the list by letting them add, delete, and pick from it. For searching there should also be a sort function/button (by last name then first name).If the user deletes from the list the corresponding data in the file will be deleted.If the user picks from or adds to the list, I'd like to find the best way to populate the corresponding data elements on another form (i.e., in their respective text boxes). This will include the ability to edit/save from this other form too.

View 4 RepliesI am trying to mine data from a webpage and use that data to populate textboxes (which will later be used to fill out and print a form).
For example, if the HTML source code looks like this...
<html>
<head>
<title>myGulf.com: Customer Login</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<link href="gsstyles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

How would I mine or parse "myGulf.com" and place it into a textbox? I have tried using regex, but cannot get the code to work by viewing incomplete code snipets from other posts (I dont yet have enough understanding of regex).
I am trying to pull some report details from a website. my home page is having a list of Report IDs, by clicking them i will be navigated to the detailed reports.. Similarly i have so many report IDs in my home page... i have loaded my page in webBrowser1 and capture the link of the first report id by looping through the page. After capturing the link of first report id i am trying to navigate to the link using webBrwoser2 which is placed in the same form. the page loaded sucessfully and i can extract the report to the textbox.
Here is the problem : before complete the navigation action in webbrowser2 the first loop used to get the links of report IDs got completed. So i am not able to loop all the report ID's Link to get all details.
I am not sure i am doing the right way of extracting a data from a web page..
Just moved a .NET 2.0 App from VS2005 to VS2010 and noticed that now when a window containing a WebBrowser tries to retrieve a pdf it thows out an error (unknown file type System.Byte[]). This would usually indicate that Acrobat Reader has not been installed - but open up IE9 and enter the link into the address bar and the PDF displays in the browser without any incident!
Should point out that the app created in VS2005 and installed on Win 7 (actually Server 2008 R2 in 'Workstation Mode') has the same issue.. All works fine in XP and below... Do seem to remember this on a Vista box, but put that down to Acrobat not being installed!
