I have a program I made that connects to a driver website at a timed interval to check for updates, but there are certain times where a CAPTCHA page comes up - I am trying to have my Timer stop if that page comes up, so I'm not constantly hitting it over and over - This is what I have, but it doesn't fire when the CAPTCHA page comes up:
[Code]...
I have made an app that will check to see if a website is on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th page of google, the websites are in a datagridview. I am using five webbrowser controls but it begins to get slower and slower? As it searches for each website using a for statement. How to improve this code to make it run quicker, or even a better way to go about it.
View 8 RepliesWhat is the best way to search in the text in webbrowser?
View 2 RepliesAlrite, I'm making an application that uses 10minute [URL]; I was wondering how i would get the text/value of the email's id using WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("addyForm:addressSelect")?
View 1 RepliesIt seems simple enough, but apparently I cant figure it out. Theres more to my actual problem, but once I figure out this concept then I can do the rest. I want to search a list for a given string, and if it matches, then print it out. If it doesnt match, then it moves to the next item in the list. If if doesnt find any matches, it says "no matches found".

I have the following simple code for searching for a text string within a folder and have several questions:
Dim searchFolder As String = "C:BakerOrders estOrders"
Dim files As ReadOnlyCollection(Of String)
files = My.Computer.FileSystem.FindInFiles(searchFolder, "NEXT DAY PM", True,
[Code].....
The folder will contain up to 1,000 text files (at any point) at 20kb to 50kb each. The scan should occur every 5 sec with ~200 new files and (-) ~200 exiting files during this period.
Questions: The previous code only catch files from 1 text string. Is there a way of doing one search and returning the files which contain any of the 3 strings? Is there a more effective way of achieving this? Is there a simple / effective way of searching each file only one time by keep track of previous results while searching only the 200 new additions each scan?
I've got two text files. The first has got a list of certain keywords. Each one if these keywords are fed into a combobox. Now, when I choose one of the items from this combobox, I want to search the other textfile for the same keyword and read from that point to the next keyword. And then feed each line into a listbox. Perhaps I should use an INI-file for this purpose, doesn't really matter for me.
The textfiles have this structure;
Textfile1:
London
Oslo
New York
Hamburg
Amsterdam
The second textfile has this structure;
Textfile2:
'London'
Apples
Oranges
Pears
'Oslo'
Pasta
Salami
Monkeyballs
'New York'
Dada
Duda
Dadadish
Is this possible? The reason I want to do it this way is to create a fully dynamic system. One which relies fully on whatever information is stored in these textfiles. I'm gonna build pretty complex strings from these results later on. So far, I've got this to read the first file and add each line to the combobox:
Dim oReadMenuFunction as System.IO.StreamReader
oReadMenuFunction = IO.File.OpenText("textfile1.txt")
Do While oReadMenuFunction.Peek <> -1
Dim LineIn as String = oReadMenuFunction.ReadLine()
Combobox.Items.Add(LineIn)
Loop
There's an INI file that I want to access and read information from. This is the complete content of the INI file in question: http:[url]....I believe it is because of the [ ] tags in that INI file. Because they work if I remove the tags.My program has a bunch of comboboxes, trackbars and checkboxes. These items will be filled by the information taken from the INI file.For instance, ini file has these lines;
bCrosshairEnabled=1
bDoDepthOfField=0
bFXAAEnabled=1[code]...
Example: I want the checkbox8 in my form to get checked if bFXAAEnabled has a value of 1 or unchecked if it is 0.
I have to scan through documents. Excell, Word, txt, ect looking for company names that match a pre-difined list of companies.I then email the companies some specifics in regards to that doc.The problem I have been having recently is that the list of companies keeps growing and I am starting to miss some more than I used to.What I would like to build is a tiny app that has 2 Text boxes.1 on the left for input (where I would copy/paste) the document text I receive.and one on the right for the output where it will highlight any line that contains the name of any of the pre-defined companies.
I started toying with the idea and so far I have form with a SplitContainer. Within that SplitContainer each side has a TextBox... Below the Textbox on the left hand side splitcontainer I have a submit button with no actions currently assigned to it.

I am trying to get the webpage back as a string a used this in it own function. It comes back ip followed by <!--ipaddres (ipagine) --> I had the code done but my computer crashed and lost it all. If you get it as a string you can count the extra letters and and sub the extra ones then divided by 2 to get the half that will be the ip something like this:
*gethttp is the other function
function realIP as string
dim a as string
dim out as string
dim i as integer

I am working on some project where I suppose to pull data from internet and print them out. Thing is I need to go to several different websites, so I want to make application that will go to websites declared in code and on those websites type into textbox word that I want and hit search. Once I do that I will easily use regular expressions to get information I need, but I need VB.NET application to do this. Example: I have button and textbox in my application. In textbox I write "VB.NET", once I hit button application will go to google.com and in search textbox type "VB.NET" and hit search and then I will pull data using regex into my application.

View 2 RepliesIs there a simple method to tell whether a certain word is present in the webbrowser (not the source, but the visual stuff).
I can't use the source because it takes too much time to load when it's a rather large site page. And I believe I can't use instr on webbrowser1.HtmlDocument.
Who can point me in the right direction, I didn't find any solution myself with google. I only need to know if for example the word 'New' is present on this page, so a True or False must be returned
I am using WebBrowser Control...
When form is loading i set webbrowser to navigate a website.
Now this website running too much popup ads.. So each time webbrowser navigate a new popup window open out of my application.. Is their any way to stop that..
I have been trying to use the WebBrowser control to access a website, nothing fancy involved, just a Security Certificate error message I can't get around:
The site that I've been trying to access is [URL].. By clicking on the "Login" hyperlink you are taken to a https connection.Internet Explorer simply allows you to click on the "Continue to this website (not recommended)" link which displays the Logon screen.Clicking on the same link in a WebBrowser control simply reloads the page as (I assume) WebBrowser has not been told that the page is ok.
I've tried looking around for the solution with no luck, it seems like such a simple problem..
recently I've been going through some website login automation and ended up with creating a simple my own browser quite happily, to open websites and login straight away.
But I found out that I can't automate some of the websites I was going for, because the html code of the login forms is not shared and cannot be seen in the source.So I'll give you guys a couple of websites I can't deal with and please advice if it is possible to do stuff with them:[URL]...

View 1 Repliesi have seen google chrome, whenever you open a new tab, it will show you the last 8 pages that you have visited. I want to do a similar thing, except i have a vb.net code behind the .aspx file, which shall give me a list of URL's called form the database. When the page is loaded the URL's are displayed on it. what i need my code to do is to pick up these URL's, on the background open a web browser, take a snapshot of it and save it, and display it on the screen. dont recommend IFrames cause I need a snapshot and not an actual running site in the small snapshot.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to access a secured website using vb 2005 and webbrowser control. I've got the credentials, the script can pass the login page but when trying to navigate to the second page within, the page is being redirected back(to the first page after logging in). The second page I'm trying to get to retrieves the data from a database and displays some options for the user to select in order to prepare a report which can be downloaded after the fields selections. And I wanted my script to do this automatically without user interaction.

Dim wb As WebBrowser = WebBrowser1
[code]....
I am trying to automate login and navigation to a website using the WebBrowser control. I can successfully logon to the site using the wb control but after that I can't seem to get access to the newly loaded document's elements within the same routine. I check for ReadyState Complete and IsBusy but they don't seem to be working. There don't appear to be any frames being used at all so I can't figure out why this won't work. I know that the wb control is successfully logging in because I can see the page load in the wb control. However, after the page loads I try to access the HTMLDocument for the new page (after logging in) and it is either set to Nothing or it's the previous page's HTML. I've tried putting in a Sleep to wait for the page to finish before trying to access the HTMLDocument on the new page but it still doesn't work. If I create a button on my form that accesses the HTMLDocument and click it it works fine. I can't figure out how to ensure that the entire page has finished loading within my routine. I tried putting a switch into the DocumentCompleted event but that doesn't work either.
View 2 RepliesIm currently working on a project which included a webbrowser navigating to a website. Whenever it arrives there it disables me to double click on the Media Player inside the website to go full screen. Although I know this is possible as Ive seen that the webbrowser can disable clicking on Firefox. My question: is it possible to enable the standard webbrowser in Vb.Net to allow me clicking even if the website doesnt.
View 2 RepliesI've got a webbrowser. It's prettey advanced, given that I've spent quite a lot of time coding it, and here is my code which will get the Favicon of the current website when a the webbrowser has finished navigating:
frmBrowser.BrowserTabs.SelectedTab.Icon = Controller.GetFavicon(Me.Url.Host & "/favicon.ico")
Sometimes, a user has switched tabs before the webbrowser has finished navigating. So my question is: Is there any way in which I can determine what tab the favicon belongs to and set it to that tab, rather than just setting the favicon to the selected tab?
Is there a way to make your webbrowser connect (or your computer ping) to a website via proxy server? (ex: 123.123.123.123 :: 12345)
Not a proxy like corpask, but an IP and port.
