I have just about completed writing an application for college. I load quotes into a webbrowser control for the user to view and print, my question is, can the user edit text in a webbrowser control (I want them to have this option) or am I better off using a text box control.
View 1 RepliesI have a WebBrowser control that have a webpage loaded in it. On the webpage I have a textarea control, like this:
<textarea name="text" id="textarea_obj">
I am trying to figure out how I can highlight every instance of a search string found in the the webbrowser control. The closest I came was to replace each instance with html code that highlights the text, but that causes problems because it replaces the search string in links and causes problems with text boxes on the page if an instance of the search string is in a textbox on the web page.[code]...

View 2 RepliesI using the VistaControls control library (here) and I have a WebBrowser control that will have black in it on the form. When I set the background color to black in the HTML, the glass renders fine. So I added some text that is red, but it shows up as a transparent red. How do I get the text to be opaque?
Also, if I want to have black text in the HTML, how do I get that to show correctly?

I am working on a parental control system for my webbrowser (checks if navigated page is on the blacklist). So I was looking for a list of sites to add to the system as default, I didn't find any but my friend did, but the problem is he gave me a list, for example, with lots of lines like this:
http:somename:something@website.com
http:somename1:something1@website2.com
How can I remove everything from the "@" till the "http;" (including http) and remove it all so only the website name stays? I could do it by hand/notepad, but it would take forever as the list has over 2k sites I would like to add in my blacklist! I thought maybe strings could do it?

I have a Webbrowser control on my Windows Form that loads a local page using the DocumentStream property. The page contains an input element of type text. When rendered, users are able to type anything they wish however they are unable to use keys like "Delete" or typical Cut & Paste functions. If it were not for the fact that you can type data and Basckspace to delete the character one at a time. If I load the same page in Internet Explorer, the input box functions correctly.

I'm working on a pretty simple project, just a WebBrowser app which is tailored for Webmail. I'm working on an OWA portion, and OWA normally doesn't allow the textfields on the Login page to be auto-filled. Is there a way I can force this? Search through the OWA login page code, find the fields, then fill in the fields with preset/saved data?

I have an application that loads a web page then allows the user to edit that page by setting the Webbrowser control to EditMode.What I am trying, so far unsuccessfully, to do is trap when a user right clicks on a link already on the web page. The problem I have is that although I can trap the right click using MouseDown and GetElementFromPoint, if the link that is clicked is nested within a higher level element then the higher level element is returned by GetElementFromPoint not the nested element.[code]When the user right clicks, say, the link with test2.html my current code returns the DIV element not the A element. How can I understand which of the A elements the user clicked.[code]

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.

View 6 RepliesI am retrieving some records from a database dynamically, not knowing exactly which table I need to query, or even which fields to retrieve. I display this data in a control that looks a bit like a listbox, except each item is two lines: a label and a value. Now, the user needs to be able to browse through this list until he finds the item he needs, and then he should be able to edit the item.
This application will (eventually, this is just a 'proof of concept') run on a mobile device or PDA or something like that, so space is limited. To allow the user to edit a value, I simply show a panel containing some edit control (textbox, checkboxes, combobox, etc), let the user edit whatever he's editing, save the change and display the list of items again.[code]...
i am using a third party tool "lookupedit control" which is similar to a combobox. as we type in the address bar of our browser we get the related items in the dropdown of the address bar. eg: if e type go we get all the items starting from go in the drop down of the address bar. I want to implement the same functionality for lookupedit or a combobox.
