View 4 RepliesI have a project that I am working on and I just recently transfered it from an XP machine to a Windows 7 machine. Both machines are running VB Studio and the only thing that changed was I moved it from the XP machine to the WIndows 7 environment. I have not changed any of the code, I just transfered it and ran it to make certain nothing happened.
View 9 RepliesWhy does System.Xml.XmlDocument.LoadXml method throw System.Net.WebException ?if MSDN was right, LoadXml should at most give me a System.Xml.XmlException.Yet I have weird exceptions like:The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly.
Dim document As New XmlDocument

I created an application which posts data to a url using webrequest.It worked fine on my computer, but when another client runs the application , he gets the following error:
System.Net.WebException: the remote name could not be resolved:'site.com'
at system.net.httpwebrequest.getrequeststream()..
I want to make a download Manager with resume capability (dont refer me to codeproject examples which use httpwebrequest and webresponse classes) i want to make the use of system.net.webclient class. I know it can provide me with events and stuff but is it possible to resume our downlaods with this class ?
View 6 RepliesI am writing a Windows Service to act as an internal Web image collector. I can thumbnail Web navigated to webpages using a webBrowser Control. But since a Service will not support a UI based Control like a WebBrowser control I have switched gears using the wrapper WebClient from system.net. So I am looking for a way to capture and thumbnail a Webpage.I can use the following to grab images off a web pager using webClient but cannot figure out how to thumbnail the entire page.
Dim imgBuffer() As Byte Using wclient As New WebClient() imgBuffer = wclient.DownloadData("http:// Webpage/Image") End Using
Using mem As New IO.MemoryStream(imgBuffer) Using img As Image = Image.FromStream(mem) Me.PictureBox1.Image = img.GetThumbnailImage(100, 100, Nothing, IntPtr.Zero) End Using End Using
End Sub
I'm trying to filter submitted web sites by attempting to browse them while bouncing the request off of OpenDNS. If the page received is the OpenDNS page, I'll assume the page shoudld be blocked.
How might I accomplish this task using the System.Net.WebClient class?
Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClientGamerTag.Replace(" ", "+")wc.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential(Email, Password, "http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?GamerTag=" & GamerTag)Dim fx As New System.IO.StreamReader(wc.OpenRead("http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?GamerTag=Dark Slipstream" & GamerTag))Dim str As String = fx.ReadToEndfx.Close()
The above code will open a webclient, set the credentials (possible error?), create a stream of the entire page, and then load it into a string (str).I then scan through and look for what is needed (Gamerscore, Motto, Bio, etc)-in this case.This doesn't work however, it doesn't sign in.
make a System.Net.WebClient with pause, and resume?
View 9 RepliesIs it possible to send HTTP POST with some form data with System.Net.WebClient?If not, is there another library like WebClient that can do HTTP POST? I know I can use System.Net.HttpWebRequest, but I'm looking for something that is not as verbose.
Hopefully it will look like this:
Using client As New TheHTTPLib
client.FormData("parm1") = "somevalue"

I've been using an invisible WebBrowser control to submit a form on my server, but I'd like to use System.Net.WebClient() to accomplish this so I don't have the control hanging around on my form.I need to get the page, fill out the username and password fields, and click the submit button. This was done easily enough with the WebBrowser control, but I can't find any examples using System.Net.WebClient().

View 1 RepliesI have been prototyping a simple site search tool.I found some online references to using webclient.download data. I have a (mostly) working prototype, but it only returns static HTML on the page that is being searched.I also would like to be able to search the contents of controls (such as text in label controls that are set at run time.) In the code below, the data in label1 is not returned.[code].....
View 3 RepliesI am scraping title of webpage. i am using webclient class to get its html source. the true title of webpage is this which apprear on browser "La rvolution" but when i extract it from html source using webclient class i get following string. "La rvolution du sourire juste"
I think its something related to string conversion. how to convert this "La rvolution du sourire juste" to "La rvolution"?
Following info on webpage might give you some clue which is content type. " <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />"
I need to parse a Unix text file so, I am using System.Net.WebClient to ftp into a Unix server then using the .DownloadFile() method to get the text file, but its coming in with the Unix end line ""; so is there a way to convert that to windows format while doing the DownloadFile method? I do re-read it after and fix it, I am just looking for a better way.
Or is there an alternate such as instead of a DownloadFile, and the two other steps above can I just read it into an array right off the Unix server?? If so then what method would I use?
I am getting an error with this Dim Web As New WebClient Web.Proxy = "69.196.16.237:62159" It says runtime errors may occur when converting string to System.Net.IWebProxy What does that mean?

Basicly I'm downloading XML files with the Webclient class for processing and caching in a local database. There are three different categories of data, each contains 1 to n numbers of XML files. To retrieve the XML file I ask the server with following parameters in the URL:

I'm making a custom class that mocks the System.Drawing.Rectangle class because the Rectangle class doesn't have a name property. I need a name property because I am adding all of my rectangles to a collection and I need a little more info stored than just their locale and size.

View 1 RepliesI have had several occasions recently to access a specific class several times over a relatively small time frame.So I've been storing the value of the class in Session and trying to access it on page load, if it's not available creating a new instance and storing that in session.
So instead of constantly replicating the same code for different classes on different pages I'm trying to create an extension method to do this for me.

I'm stuck on what to do when I make my new instance of my class (it would have to have a New() sub)
I'm not sure where to go from here... or even if this is the best way to do it.
I've tried to Google this problem, but haven't found any relevant results.I am trying to handle HTTP 500 errors when logging into a web service (the web service returns 500 when login is incorrect). An WebException is thrown, but I can't seem to catch it properly. The exception is highlighted in green instead of the normal yellow (having trouble finding info on this as well)

We have a customer, who prints a large number of a batch job to a reporting service. When printing large batches of jobs, occasionally he would get a WebException from reporting services saying "The underlying connection was closed".What is the work around for this? Somebody added this portion in the code [code]It doesn't seem to fix the issue though. The customer still notices the Web Exception when she prints a large job to reporting service.

I'm trying to use system.io.packaging to create my own zip class. I've got it to work, but i'm not happy with the compression rate. In the code below I've set it to the maximum compression rate, yet winrar is able to create a zip (at maximum compression) that is 2/3 of the size when I make it. Am i doing something wrong?
