WebBrowser - Open Links And Buttons When Clicked In New Window
Jul 11, 2011
I am trying to get my Visual Basic Web Browser to open links and buttons when clicked in a new window of my web browser by using the New Window event. I found this code to make links work in a new window of my browser, but buttons will not. When I click on a button, a new window of my form pop ups but the url says, "about:blank". Is it because the attribute is set to "href"?
Private Sub WebBrowser1_NewWindow2(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.NewWindow
Dim myElement As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveElement
Dim target As String = myElement.GetAttribute("href")
Dim newInstance As New Form1
newInstance.Show()
newInstance.WebBrowser1.Navigate(target)
e.Cancel = True

I'm making a web browser and am using the NewWindow event to open links and buttons in a new window. The problem is that it says, (Object is not a member of System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser). Do I have to add a Reference to my application or something? Below is my code:Private Sub WebBrowser1_NewWindow2(ByVal ppDisp As Object, ByVal Cancel As Boolean)
Dim frm As Form1
frm =
New Form1
ppDisp = frm.WebBrowser1.Object FRM.WEBBROWSER1.OBJECT IS THE CODE THAT'S NOT WORKING.
frm.Show()
End Sub

Private Sub LinkClicked(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Dim link As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveElement
Dim url As String = link.GetAttribute("href")
[code]...
Okay so here's the question how do I get the links that open in a new window to open in my main webbrowser control. The above code does some, but it's not fool proof.

Im making a "offline viewer" which uses saved webpages.I'm using a web browser and a tree-viewer. Currently when you click a link for a file/ installer (for example if you click on the "The Gimp" installer link) you have to right click, and then "save target as..." and then save it (so you would then two copys of the same file) AND then open it.Is there way i could have the file open when the link click? (Again, for example, the running of The Gimp installer apon clicked, or the opening of the video file when clicked)

I have a webbrowser control built into a windows form of my application and I was curious if there was a way that any links that are clicked on in the webbrowser control will be forced to open in a new browser window?

I have a program that contains a web control and a combo box. The combo box contains a list of servers to log into. When one is selected, it loads in WebBrowser4 web control. User logs in and have a work list to work from. What I am trying to do is program this so once they are in work list and click a link, I want that clicked link to be fired off in a new, IE window, not in the WebBrowser4 web control. I want the web control to maintain the work list page that is already up.

I already have this code from another question on this website.
Help.ShowHelp(ParentForm,
("C:UsersBeaudeanDesktopHelp.chm"),HelpNavigator.TableOfContents, Nothing)
That works fine except i need the location of the chm help file to point to "my.resources" where it exists because i need to install my program but in that code example it only works with strings?

my webbrowser navigates to a webpage. I need to store all the links into a collection, I did find the code to do the job (on this forum) and it works, but there is a problem: there are more links on the page than those the code reads, like when i right click on a picture and choose "copy shortcut" I get a link that is not showing when I display the "view source" for the entire page. I can't figure out how to do it.

This is probably a simple Q & A but I have a appication that is mainly compriesed of WebBrowsers. Would it be possible to have one of my WebBrowsers on a seperate window change the url of another webbrowser in a diffrent window?
Basiclly is there a way javascript or something else to change the target of a link on my website to target a open window's webbrowser in the application??

What I would like to do is to have four different buttons (e.g., buttonA, buttonB, buttonC and button D). I wanna give the following instruction to the people: press these buttons in the following order: first buttonA, then buttonB, then buttonC and last buttonD. If they obey this instruction then a picture will be displayed, for instance a happy face. All the other combinations will not activate this picture to be displayed, or in other words, there won't be any consequence. I would also like to save this data using windows note pad e.g., writeline (1, xxxxxx). Is there any chance I will make it?

I am trying to trap the newwindow event for the webbrowser control using this code
Private Sub wbMain_NewWindow(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles wbMain.NewWindow
Dim wb As WebBrowser = DirectCast(sender, WebBrowser)
Dim link As HtmlElement = wb.Document.ActiveElement
[Code] .....
But the href property is always empty, this is because the active element is the last button clicked. But it is a button I click in the webbrowser control that opens a link in IE.

I am working on a term project for my university graduation next month. I was wondering if there is a way to disable the links on a webpage which is loaded into a VS2008 webbrowser control. I am trying to create an application that uses static webpages that I prefer are unable to be navigated out of due to the fact that the way the app is set up, being able to navigate within the webpage rather than returning to my selection form could get the user lost. The program itself is done, and all my selection form option links work fine in the webbrowser control.

I'm making a Tabbed Web Browser, and it's nearly finished! There's one problem, though - when I click on some links, it opens them in Internet Explorer. What I want is for them to open in a new Tab. To be honest, this is the only part of VB.NET programming I'm really bewildered about. The current code for my main form (I have put in 3 forms) is here:
Imports System.Net.WebRequestMethods
Public Class Form1
Dim int As Integer = 0
Dim Browser As WebBrowser

I've noticed that when you click on a web page in Windows Explorer, or open a file in general, and the default application to open it is internet explorer, ie opens and opens the file. However, when I tried this on my Web Browser it opened, but ignored the file and went on its usual routine. How can I get my Web Browser to open and open the file that was clicked on in explorer?

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?

Process.Start(TheURL)
And then return the action as false so it doesn't click the link in the webbrowser object and just the process.

I want to make a small app that has three buttons on screen that when clicked, they act as keyboard input. For example, I have an application that uses a drop down list to choose a letter, number or shape. You can select using the mouse or just type in what you want. However, I cannot type in the shapes that I need, I must use the mouse to scroll through a long list in order to select the shape I need.
My initial solution was to just use alt codes..but they are long and I can't figure out a way to customize them the way I want. So I just figured why not just make a small VB app and click the button of the shape I need which would send the alt code information like I typed in using the keyboard.
So if my app has a star button, when I click it, it will be interpreted as I just entered the alt code for that star but I really just clicked a button.
Unless there is another way to allow me to create custom alt codes or modify the ones windows has for these shapes. I'm certainly open to any ideas or advice and would be grateful for help. Thank you!

having a modal window spawn for a secure asp.net site. I currently have a asp test site setup which when the user clicks on the login link it opens the standard asp.net login page (login.aspx) within a modal telerik RadWindow. I am calling this page using javascript and this works fine.
The challenge I have now is when a user clicks on a link within the page if that link points to a secure section the login screen loads in the main frame of the site vs. a pop-up. I realize why (aka my js funciton is not being called) my question is to work around this would the correct/acceptible approach be to call a method from each link/button that tests for user authenticaiton? If the user is authenticated then redirect to the page otherwise call the javascript funciton to open the window?
UPDATE: I have some progress to now at least determine if the user is validated. Since I am using forsm auth I can test this using ISAUthenticated
public void LinkButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Request.IsAuthenticated == false)
{

I made a form with only 1 Button. I want that when i click that button, 2 more buttons should be appeared. Example: Button1 is clicked. Button2 and Button3 are displayed. I have named Button1 as Scan. When i click on Scan, the Button2(Pause) and Button3(Stop) should be displayed. When it is scanning, i have placed the progress bar with the timer. When the progress bar finishes loading, Button2(Pause) and Button3(Stop) should be hidden again.

So, when someone makes a website, they decide if they want their link opened in a new tab,window, or in the same window. How do I make it by default that it opens in the same window, no matter what its set to on the website? I just don't like internet explorer taking over on those links.
