View 4 Repliesi have made a basic web browser, i am trying to add bookmarks and history on to it. I have made a basic bookmarks form where you can add pages, but i want when you double click on a bookmark for it to open in the browser, and i have added a button to add the current page into the bookmarks, but that does not have any code as i did not know where to start.
Also i have not made a template for history as i did not know where to start, please help me out as i really want to get a fully working web browser. Also i have put a link for you to look at the code, and i know the media player is affecting the tabs, i would like to keep the media player but would not like it to auto open if you can also help there (i didnt put that in a friend did)
here is the link, i would have attached it but it was more than 500kb, it was 1.17mb on my pc and 1.18 on mediafire:[URL]..
I've been trying to make a browser for a while now, and I still can't figure out how to make favorites or history. Well for history i can get to where it lists but it won't save, so when I close it erases it. I don't care which method, i just want to know one working way. So if you guys could help me with making history and favorites that would be great!

I want a favourites. Where when i click a button it saves the link to a .txt file in C Drive and i want it to make a menu item in a menustrip that has the name of it then when that is clicked it loads that bookmark but it gets it from the .txt file. Or is there an easier way??
View 7 RepliesI made a browser in VB and am trying to get a bookmarks bar, like the ones under the address bar in Google Chrome, Firefox, and IE.I have two listboxes, one with the same text as the button added and another with the url the code should make the listboxes select the same indexed item, and when you click on the button, it finds the same index number in listbox1 which contains the button's text, finds the matching url in listbox2, and goes to it however, I have a problem: when using addhandler for a newly added button, if I extract the text of the current function, it gives me the same text as the handler I'm getting it from its really confusing but basically how can I get the name of the button that was just clicked? the buttons aren't preset (like the user adds them when he/she needs to) so i cant use "button1_click..... button1.text...button2_click.... button2.text"

View 1 Repliesi have posted here a few times on various issues and found all the help given was substantial to get the problem resolved, im working on a tabbed webbrowser and im currently adding a bookmarks feature, i am verry new to coding and require some simple i have a menu item "bookmark" and the options of that item are dropdown items "bookmark this page" "Edit bookmarks" "add custom bookmark"Codes for them are below:
[Code]...
the problem is when i click "bookmark this page" or any of the options within that bookmark menu it navigates the page to a search page and searches for "bookmark this page" then adds that search page as the bookmark :-S so really the bookmark thing is working but its bookmarking the wrong thing.but i cant find anywhere to fix this, im wondering if someone was willing to help me, im thinking the easyest way is to give someone my whole solution and files ect and that way evrything is there and can be looked in to
i also have some other problems that dont really bother me at the moment like history not showing unless u type something into the address bar but as a i said thats small and i havent even attempted a fix on it, so if i cant work it out ill come back .
I am a still a beginner at this so bare with me. I have made a web browser which is my starting point in VB. Now its fully functional and has history and all that. And i am using tab control as the browser part. History works when the go button or enter key is pressed but I can't get this to work when a user clicks a link.
Public Class Form1
Dim int As Integer = 0
Dim tabs

In the Settings, do I have the type as System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection and the scope as User?

list of URL for the web pages requested by the user should be maintained. The user should be able to navigate previous pages requested by clicking on the links in the History list. On the browsers start up, the History list should be loaded to the browser.

Now, my problem is that, when I try to list records in mysql by using tables, it remembers history and the previous data that you listed will appear like a ghost even if the data you inputted does not correspond to the data that it is showing. How can I avoid that?

I am still relatively new to the .NET language , but I will get straight to the point. I have a web bowser i have made after 2 nights of coding and getting myself familiar with it. I have a menustrip at teh top, with a view category. Inside taht category i have a view cookies and view history button. As we know, ths browser stores its history and cookies with the Internet explorer. I am looking on how to create a form with the ability to view history, and another to view cookies. I also want to be able to delete them willingly from within the form. I have a listview control already on the form, but i am lost elsewheres.

The plan is to put the tool in a central location so that anyone can use it.I'd like to store, somewhere, the date of the last backup for each server.

View 6 RepliesI'll start off by saying my website has a landing page of http:[url]....
On PageOne.aspx, I have a link to another page: http:[url].....
On PageTwo.aspx, I have an link to the following:
<a href="http:[url].....
The /MyFiles/ directory is actually a virtual directory which points to a file server that holds many other files (PDF, jpeg, doc, etc.).When I navigate to PageTwo.aspx from PageOne.aspx, I can click "back" and still get to PageOne.aspx (my browser history is ok). When I click on the link on PageTwo.aspx, the PDF opens in the same window...then I can click "back" to get back to PageTwo.aspx, but I can't click "back" again to get to PageOne.aspx (it seems like my browser history has been reduced by one page).
I can only imagine that this happens because of the virtual directory since I can't duplicate this problem if the PDF resides on the same server as my .aspx pages. If that is the case, does anyone know how to get around this and still have my PDF reside on the file server (virtual directory)?
For security purposes, I need to write a program that tracks the browser history of Internet Explorer on my machine. The way it would work is this: it starts up when the computer does (I'm pretty sure I can do that without a problem), then runs in the background as long as the computer is on. When the user types a URL or clicks a link, the program reads the URL and writes it to a text file. It does not check the browser history, as my situation makes checking the browser history useless. It records the URL as soon as the web page is reached.

View 11 RepliesI have a small script that logs all of the website I visit and then displays them on a form. When I open the form the first time it displays all of the websites like it should. However, the second time I open it, it displays two of every website. The third time opening it, three of every website. I think that it is because the data doesn't get erased from the listbox when I close the form. Is there a way to clear the listbox when the form closes or do I need to find a new way to set it up?
View 6 Replieswhat a good code to delete my "Webbrowser1" cookies (not my IE7 cookies !) I would also like this program to delete the Webbrowser1 History & Temporary Files as well, but mainly the cookies. I would like for this program to either delete cookies by a simple click of a button or to set a timer that can erase the cookies every few minutes. Also, if it could show the current cookies before being deleted.
