Webbrowser Not Detecting Flash Installation
Mar 4, 2009
I'm a novice in Visual Basic and I'm currently experimenting with development of a small application that includes webbrowser control. When I tested the browser (actually tested a few of them, not developed by myself) accessing websites using flash content, it always returns message "Flash not installed" and prompts me toh have it installed. I remember IE6 used to have problems of this kind.IE7, FF and other browsers work just fine and detect flash plugin straight away.This is probably a known issue, but I just couldn't find anything on it in these forums.

I am using VB from Visual Studio.net 2008. I need to understand how to build a VBScript or Application that will detect when a flash drive is inserted into a Windows XP SP2 system. Once the drive is detected, the VBScript/App must then automatically search for any available .ppt file (power point) located in the root directory of that flash drive. If the .ppt file is found, pptview.exe will launched opening the file in question.
This script will be located in the startup folder and will run until a flash drive is entered and then it should pause until the flash drive is removed and then start searching again. This is for a kiosk to be used at trade shows for a company I am working with. The company wants this to be simple and automated and only requiring that the user setup the kiosk, which has no keyboard or mouse, plug in a flash drive with a .ppt file on it. The system will then automatically load the slideshow and play until the system is shut down or the flash drive is removed.
I am pursuing this option because an autorun.inf file on the flash drive only adds another line item to the autoplay dialog. Although it may be possible to write a small script that will select that item, there is no guarantee that the user will have that autorun.inf installed on the flash drive in question.
Also it may be better to copy the .ppt file into a temp directory on the kiosk machine, so that in the event that the flash drive needs to be removed there is not data transfer taking place, minimizing the possibility of data corruption.
Most of the file handling I may be able to handle on my own, but it is the detection of the flash drive insertion and removal that is a problem. I am looking for some clarity on this point first. I may ask other questions later, but for now that is the biggest hurdle I have to cross. [URL]..

My VB.NET code is supposed to execute third party Javascript code in an attempt to fill in and submit a form. This process consists of five steps, and I have been able to submit the form when all the steps are kept separate (i.e. behind 5 separate consecutive button clicks). Now, what I'd like to have is one button to handle all the five steps.
The problem is that the form originally only appears after calling "webbrowser.Navigate" command, which apparently modifies the page's HTML code. I seem to be unable to detect when Javascript has finished loading the new HTML in order to fill and submit the form. I have tried a timer control to wait for a certain HTML element ID to appear, but in vain. [URL]

I then found out that there was a setting I needed to change and then flash started to work again for me.I just sent the program to my friend and flash isn't working for him in his webbrowser. What do I do?and the setting i changed was
Tools-->Options-->Show all settings-->checked
Projects and Solutions-->General-->Show advanced build configurations-->checked-->OK
Build-->Configuration Manager-->Active solution platform-->New-->x86-->OK-->Closed

I embedded a Gecko WebBrowser(firefox browser) and an Internt Explorer WebBrowser control in my visual basic programming. I am working on a program right now that embeds a flash object or swf object into my webpage. When I viewed this in my webbrowser control within my program, the flash object did not show up. How do I fix this problem? Also, I could not copy and paste into my firefox form fields.[code]...

Last year my team wrote a VB .Net project that used the webbrowser control to automatically fill out user forms, click images, action buttons etc. for a web application used in our company. This year, the web application was upgraded to version 3.0. We got the application in our area so that we can adjust the code in our application to work with the upgraded web application.However, the new web application is loaded with Adobe Flash. We cannot "right-click" in the window to retrieve the Source Code (this is how we got the information from the last web application, right-click and read the HTML). When we right-click, we only get options to change Adobe settings.How do I find the source code for the web page that uses Adobe Flash in order to use our application to communicate with it and fill out the fields, click buttons, etc.?

I am currently trying to get a WebBrowser object not to download flash and images. This is just to make a lightweight browser. I know this can be done within the IE settings, but i would prefer it on an application level.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
WebBrowser1.Navigate(New Uri("http:google.co.uk"))
End Sub
End Class
I have found some C# code, but i dont know how to change it to VB.Net and the convertors make some bugs, which i do not know how to fix
Software i am using:
Windows XP SP3
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
getting the webbrowser to stop downloading them?

I have created a VB.NET project that includes WebBrowser control. The web browser control navigates to html page that embedes a flash movie. Everything works fine except that when I want to exit the fullscreen mode of the video by pressing (Esc) key, it doesn't exit. If I view the html page with any other browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, ...) it works perfectly. You can download the project from the link below. The files are in the Debug folder.

I have an application which has 2 WebBrowser controls inside(both with script errors suppressed if thal). The application involves navigating to the same url every 3-4 seconds roughly(when the browser is ready).After a while it will crash and tell me flash.ocx is missing and is not included with this version of windows(w7 and vista). I troubleshoot the problem and tells me to update flash which does no fix the problem. This crash only happens when I run the application outside of the IDE btw and I get no errors in the IDE.

1. Is there any way to disable refreshing in such a way that the button can still be used for stuff like flash on the page still? All my methods have blocked using the button in the flash which is loaded on the page....
2. Is there any way to get the new scrollbars of IE10 or metro style scrollbar or what not into the webbrowser like the desktop version of IE10 does in Windows 8 Consumer Preview?
3. Is there any way to allow the close window called from javascript to be detected & actually close the window in my program?
4. Is there any way to make it so when new window is called it will open a new window with my application in a new instance? stopping me now is it seems to want to open in the same window if I use the event NewWindow to cancel the event from happening but it gets script errors....is there any way to retrieve the link to what it needs to open so I can handle this properly? Or at least tell it what else to use? besides the default browser....I want it to open inside my own program & not IE.

Hi, I'm just beginning to teach myself how to do OOP in VB 2008 Express. I have a quick question after seeing a video online.Is a VB variable the equivalent of an 'instance' in Flash and a VB object like a 'symbol' in Flash? Is this what it means by a variable being a reference or pointer to an object and not the object itself?
