Select Characters In HTML Document Displayed In WebBrowser Control?
Jul 1, 2009
I wrote a VB.Net application that displays HTML help files according to user's search results.A user types some keywords and receives a list of HTML help files containing these keywords.When a list item is selected the HTML file is displayed in WebBrowser control.The problem is that I cannot mark the keywords in the displayed HTML file. I need to highlight them like in a standard Help. I tried many options and nothing works.If I change HTML element style manually (background color for a specific string) all pictures attached to this page are not displayed. After "Refresh" operation the pictures are displayed but the text selection is not enabled.I hope there is a standard function for this operation but I cannot find it.

I use the webbrowser control in my program but when after navigate to a site. I try to get some element on the using the document of the webbrowser (like getelementbyid ... ) I notice that some element are missing. I know that elements are dynamically inserted into the page by some javascript. I searched method to get those element and I try to get them injecting a javascript to be executed in the page and return some element by window.external method (or just to try by alert) but even if this script are executed they just return the same result as the method on the document in the original code. Is there a way to access to this 'invisible' element in my program in some way just like I access them by pressing F12 in Internet Explorer?
Here is my code:
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
//injecting and executing my javascript code
HtmlElement head = webBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("head")[0];
HtmlElement scriptEl = webBrowser1.Document.CreateElement("script");
IHTMLScriptElement element = (IHTMLScriptElement)scriptEl.DomElement;
[Code] ....
At the end of the execution both test and test2 have the same html were some element are missing.

I have a Word document in a WebBrowser. I modify the doc and save it with another name in another path. Finally I close my form and put my doc as nothing. My problem is that a dialog box appears sugesting me saving the changes (the changes done in the initial path) but i have already saved my document so I always want to select "No", how can I avoid this dialog box? Or if it isn't possible, how can I automatize this action?

I have a regular application form with a WebBrowser control.I have strung together a .htm file (from a regular text file) which I then assign to the WebBrowser control. In the html file, I have filenames mentioned.I am trying to string together the html in such a way as to give a clickable link or button that will parse into html and open the corresponding file in another WebBrowser control in VB.I have tried using VBScript and JavaScript to put a button in the html.As long as the function or sub I call is also in the same html document, it works, but I really need to transfer the control back into visual basic where I can do the heavy lifting I need to.can I just not do this as a regular VB application? Any way to do it without adding the complication of requiring ActiveX?

I have this code set up to navigate to a certain .html document depending on what's selected from a ListBox:
Private Sub FileList_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FileList.SelectedIndexChanged
HelpWindow.Navigate(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory & "help" & fileArray(FileList.SelectedIndex, 1))
End Sub
The problem is, when I first select something in the ListBox, it successfully navigates to that file and displays it. But when I select something a second time it doesn't change.
All of the paths it's trying to navigate to are correct. I've checked this 1000 times.

I am trying to get the HTML inside a HTMLElement which has an id "block". I have tried:
If webbrowser1.document.getelementbyid("block") isnot nothing then
MsgBox(webbrowser1.document.getelementbyid("block").innerHTML)
end if
But it keep throwing a NullReferenceException and tells me to check if it null/nothing which is what I'm doing.
So how do I check if an element in a HTMLdocument with a certain ID exists?

I am currently trying to be able to set the HTML in a WebBrowser control. The bit that I am having the trouble with is that when I go to put the HTML in the WebBrowser control on Form.Load or Form.Activated the WebBrowser1.Document.Body is Nothing. This means when I try to do; WebBrowser1.Document.Body.InnerHtml = value I'm getting an exception as I am trying to use it.I have also tried setting the HTML on the DocumentCompleted event for the WebBrowser control, but that event doesn't fire when I load the form (to be honest I didn't think it would but it was suggested somewhere on the Internet).

is there a way in vb.net to make it so that if the html in a web browser control contains a certain word then on startup it will show a dialog box.

I have a website that divided into 4 frames. I'm trying to create an application that will constantly run on my PC as a task looking for certain text in the HTML in a frame.When it finds the text it would alert the user by presenting a pop-up message. This is basically a monitoring website that checking network nodes. Instead of staring at the screen looking for critical messages I would like to be notified when there is an alert.

I want to load some HTML into a webBrowser control, then operate a particular bit of code when it has finished loading.The code operates fine as long as I pause to wait for it to finish loading. If I just run the code without pausing, it sometimes messes up the display. webBrowser.Document Completed doesn't run after Document.write.I don't want to use webBrowser.DocumentText = "..." because that makes an annoying click sound every time it refreshes. A lot of people are annoyed by this. There are countless threads asking how to turn off the click, and using .write seems to be the only solution that doesn't require hacking the registry.

Ok you know how our web browsers like Internet Explorer or FireFox has the option to "Save Page As". Is there a way to do this using the Web Browser Control?

Or say if I go to a website and they have a dynamic image that keeps Changing is there a way to save that image that is displayed on the Web Browser control?

WebBrowser Example.zip IntroductionBecause the WebBrowser control that we use in .NET is a COM control, not all of its uses are straightforward and some of them (even those which seem like they should be easy) require that we dip into our Interop toolbox in order to properly implement them.
A perfect example of this is loading HTML content into the WebBrowser from memory, rather than a file or a URL. Anyone who's ever used the WebBrowser control before is familiar with the Navigate2 method, which tells the control to load content from a URL (or path to a file). Loading HTML content from memory, however, is a rather elusive practice because of the many steps involved in making it work.
MSHTML.HTMLDocumentYou might notice that the WebBrowser control exposes a "document" property. The object returned by this property can be coerced to the type of "mshtml.HTMLDocument" (you must add a reference to MSHTML to your project in order to make this work) as follows:
Code:Dim clsDocument As mshtml.HTMLDocument = CType(WebBrowser.Document, mshtml.HTMLDocument)
(NOTE: You will have to add a reference to the COM library MSHTML to your project to make this compile)
Once we create an instance of HTMLDocument, a whole new world opens up to us, providing all sorts of DOM access to the content of any given Web page.
If we were to create our own HTMLDocument object from memory, we could use the "write" method to write HTML content to the document from a string variable, like this:
Code:'initialize the document object within the HTMLDocument class... clsDocument.close() clsDocument.open("about:blank")
'write the HTML to the document using the MSHTML "write" method... Dim clsHTML() As Object = {sHTML} m_clsDocument.write(clsHTML) clsHTML= Nothing
WebBrowser Control ImplementationUsing the HTMLDocument returned by the "document" property of the WebBrowser control, however, is not as straight-forward. Because of the way that this object is created and initialized in memory (by the COM WebBrowser control), the "write" method fails when called as above. In order to write content to the HTMLDocument exposed by the WebBrowser control, we must first marshal the string value to a memory space that is compatible with COM. Once the string is properly marshalled, the COM interface IPersistStreamInit (implemented by the HTMLDocument class) must be used to pass the value into the object.
Interop DeclarationsIn order to pull all of this off, we must declare several Interop pieces, including an enumeration, a function, and two interfaces. The declarations for these pieces are as follows:
