I'm having problems executing this command as a BackgroundWorker. I wrote a license verification program that executes upon loading so I wanted do that in the background so that the program opens up right away and not wait for it to complete execution. The license verification codes work when it directly loads but when I put it in a BackgroundWorker it stalls at this command. WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("input") doesn't seem to execute in BackgroundWorker. I put a test msgbox before and after this command it and the after msgbox doesn't execute.Dim ElementCollection1 As HtmlElementCollection = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("input")

View 1 RepliesI'd like to integrate Webkit.NET into a VB project, but I'm not having any luck so far. The Webkit.NET tutorial page gives a demonstration in C#, so I assume that it's possible to use this in VB.NET as well? [URL]
I added the control to the project successfully, but since I'm not familiar with C#, I haven't been able to convert the code successfully (even after running the code through a few different online C# to VB.NET converters). So... has anyone gotten Webkit.NET (or any Webkit-based browser) to work in VB.NET? Or am I just dreaming? I would love to be able to use the default .NET WebBrowser control for this project, but this project requires doing a few things that the IE browser is not capable of (but Webkit can do it easily).
Issue: Can't find a way to utilize process.start to enable automatic login to various websites.Program: A simple window form application with a desired module/form to store user passwords and websites and launch a login from the form (a very basic "password manager" and launch) Side-issue: Data storage (Not yet explored because of inability to solve main issue) , would like to use text file to store System.Security.SecureString data-type.
Narrative: I'm really new to all of this but not lazy or unwilling to do the work. Two and-half months of no less than 14 hours per day reading and applying myself to VB language and VS IDE. Been able to solve all my own problems thus far with help of Web or my $600 library investment, and have a working app that I've been able to deploy. However, neither of these assets seems to hold answer for this problem, and unlike others I've encountered, I can't find a work-around.
Potential Answers: It seems that answers may lie within an HTML/XML/JS/AJAX get/post route, but this is an entire new area of study/research that I hope to avoid if there is indeed an answer utilizing Process.Start. There also seems to be a potential to solve my problem using ASP.NET, or using System.Windows.Browser and HTMLElementCollection (for the last I've only found snippets of code that utilize My.Settings.UserName, & My.Settings.Password, and it is unclear to me if these settings reflect the login to user machine or to actual desired site).
My Hope: (which may be forlorn) is that there is a simple explanation on how to plug a value in to the last parameter of Process. Start ---"Domain". I'm assuming Domain is not what I would normally interpret to be the root of a website, but is instead particular to user machine. I've found no good examples, other than a hint of using System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager, and statements that old VBCode made access easy.
My Assumption: I'm thinking this is another area where my newbie status has made me a believer there's a solution within my grasp before I found the answer but after I made a commitment. VS2008 fooled me in a similar manner in three other areas thus far, the PrintDialog control duped me into thinking printing was an easy process, HelpProvider control had me totlally convinced that Help installation was a snap, and OneClick deceived me into believing deployment was oh so simple.
Process.Start may be another place I've been had, but if you speak pretty good newbie Anyway, here's the small bit of code I've been playing with but without luck (Win32 exception, parameters are incorrect:)

I've tried so many different things and have searched far and wide but I cannot seem to find an answer for this problem. I am trying to click an update button inside a webbrowser control but RaiseEvent, InvokeMember do not seem to work and I cannot find the right alt using GetElementsByTagName. I am thinking I am having trouble because it is assigned as an input type.
This is the HTML code for the Update button that I am trying to click:
<td valign="top"><input type="image" src="/images/buttons/button_update.gif" border="0" alt="Update" title=" Update "></td>
I've managed to fill in the username and password with the necessary details but I can't seem to click the submit button.
This method works on all other sites I've tried, but not this one. The button name is submit (Tryed all from source and looped through the input elements which it can't be found on there).
Might it be on another form or is it somthing to do with JS?

I recently stared using GetElementsByTagName in my webbrowser to parse some info off some websites for work after AdamSpeight2008 here suggested it and its been working great so far for what Ive needed. Im having a new situation thought on a site where theres very similar tables one of used inv and one for new and if I use the following code:
Dim theElementCollection As HtmlElementCollection
theElementCollection = WebBrowser1.document.GetElementsByTagName("td")
For Each curElement As HtmlElement In theElementCollection
[Code]....
So im still learning this GetElementsByTagName method and Im wondering if theres a syntax where I can say basically if its "Total Used Inventory" and "% Listed with Photo" I want that 99% but I keep getting 51% because thats what it is for % Listed with no Photo on the New Inventory table
I am using this:
Dim oFile As System.IO.File
Dim oWrite As System.IO.StreamWriter
oWrite = oFile.CreateText("e: est.txt")
oWrite.WriteLine("TEST")
oWrite.Close()
Which works, but I would like to have it so instead of creating test.txt it names the document using multiple input text instance.
I have some code in VB.Net that I've been using for years that has been working fine, that is until I upgraded to Internet Explorer 9. The essence of code is below. In IE8 or earler, the code works. In IE9, when it tries to execute Br.Document.Body.innerText (or .innerHTML), I get an exception "Public member 'innerText' on type 'DBNULL' not found." When I add Br to the Watch window and hit + several times to get to inerText, it actually shows the text, but if I add Br.Document.Body.innerText to Watch, it returns DBNull as the value.Because of this problem, I removed IE9 and reverted back to IE8, and the code works fine. Of course, I would eventually prefer to upgrade to IE9, but this bug needs to be fixed first.

I've been working on a program that takes input from a textbox, removes the punctuation, puts the words into an array (using the split method), and compares the array against a reversed copy of itself to determine if it is a word palindrome or not. I understand the logic, but I'm getting kind of caught up as far as what code to us. This is what I have so far, but no matter what I enter into the text box, nothing happens. I'm completely lost as to what I'm doing wrong.

I am new to VB. I got interested in VB because it supposed to be easy to work with without learning a lot of complicated code. I want to design a web browser in VB 2008 or VB 2010 and instead of it just being a shell for Internet Exploerer, I want to use Webkit as its engine.
Is this possible? Otherwise, if I made a browser with VB what would it use.. IE's engine?.. and it would not really be a web browser but Only a shell for IE.. isn't this correct?I want a standalone app that I can distribute.
Also, whats the difference between the free VB express and the paid for Full versions of VB?

WebBrowser.Document.element.InvokeMember("click")This is not supported in the webkit engine. Is there another way I could invoke a click on an element? It has a .Focus method, maybe I could use that?
WebBrowser.Document.element.InnerText = xxx Setting a text box's text is also no longer supported. It would be nice if there was some way to set a text box's text with the web kit browser.WebBrowser.Document.element.setAttribute("theAttribute", "theValue")Same deal here. This code does not work with the web kit browser.

I'm working on a project just for fun that is a fixed browser that load one site. However, the site doesn't work in Internet Explorer so I'm using the webkit core. I've added the webkit browsing area that's named "ACB" and set the URL. I then added the only button neeed, a button to use as refresh, and set the code for that button to "ACB.Refresh()", however if I click that after running it nothing happens. If I set the page it loads to Google it loads but you can't hit search.
