I am trying to figure something out. I have an application in which I am adding the ability to consume a feed. I have no problem with the feed itself, but my problem is how can I mark certain items as 'read'? The only thing I can thing of is to read the feed into a database. In this database, I add a column for 'read' which I update when the user has read the article. Then each time I retrieve the feed, I compare the feed to the database and only load new items into the database.

This is where the program bombs. This secondclick will work in a separate event but not in the same event as the login.

I need to create a VB.net app that automatically reads a html table. It should connect to a web address (eg "[URL]") and read it. I'll be happy if I could just get the full HTML. I was able to use this code to get the HTML of a regular website:
Dim strReply As String = "NULL"
Dim objHttpRequest As HttpWebRequest
Dim objHttpResponse As HttpWebResponse
objHttpRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create("[URL]")
objHttpResponse = objHttpRequest.GetResponse
Dim objStrmReader As New StreamReader(objHttpResponse.GetResponseStream)
strReply = objStrmReader.ReadToEnd()
This code sample will give me the HTML for the website [URL]. However it will not work with the website I want (eg "[URL]"), because when you access it via regular browser it will popup a browser dialog asking for credentials (user / pass). So when I run the code above for it, I'll get the exception:
The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required.
How do I set this up to use the credentials, before retrieving the HTML? This is actually my first web-related app.
I have a small market place in my website so I want to development a small app for retrieve and check data for example find a transaction or the email of a client and to show this data in a datagridview, this the the html code of a transaction :

we have a vb.net application with send and receive mailing also. Now we have added a session timer of 30 min but the users are complaining that they are facing a problem when they write a long text message or while composing they get busy in something else and when they return back to continue composing message , they are redirected to a session expiry page, and their long text message is gone forever. So I am new to this and I was thinking like , when the user is in compose message the text should be automatically saved to drafts like hotmail.
View 1 RepliesI'd like my application to retrieve a list of directories, sub-directories, and files from a URL (URL has no index page). Is that possible? I've been searching, but all I can seem to find is how to list directories and such on a system drive.
View 5 RepliesFirstly I apologize as my question may seems repeated to you. But I am sure the details will not. I am writing a VBScript in VB.Net to automate some operation in SAP. The script is recorded from SAP. All I need to do is to put this script under a button click event on vb.net. I have done this far. But get stuck at one point. While doing the execution of the script, SAP displays a Message Box with two button labeled "Redetermine" & "Cancel" and I have to Click on "Redetermine" button to make the script run further.
The number of appearance of this message box is not fixed. Some times it appears twice and some times more than twice. My question is "How can I detect the Message Box from my VB.Net application and automatically click on the "Redetermine" button if the message box appears"?
I'm able to create a List(Of String) containing a local directory structure of a LOCAL folder. I'm wondering how I would go about getting this structure for a website, in order to get a listing of all files of a particular type (for example: all .html files)
Something along the lines of what Xenu does would be perfect, but I don't know how to get started. I was thinking of doing something with parsing out "/" of the URL, but then you'd need to know the "deepest" file that exists on the site.. which you won't know...
Is there a way to get a folder listing of each directory of a site without having FTP access or something? (I'm assuming no due to security risks)
My only other option would be to crawl all hyperlinks within the site, and storing all the "internal" ones, but I don't know how to set up that loop, or how to know when it has reached the "deepest" level.
Kinda like when you delete a remote folder from FileZilla, it will traverse all sub-diretories first and delete those files.
How can I retrieve the following values from a MarketDataIncrementalRefresh?
Symbol/Instrument
Offer
Bid
OfferSize
BidSize
I'm familiar with Quote message handling, for example:
If quote.isSetOfferPx Then Offer = quote.getOfferPx.getValue
Tried the same approach on MarketDataIncrementalRefresh, but there are no such methods, and isSetField always returns false although the field does exist.

I need to retrieve the actual text of a message box from another application. When using WM_GETTEXT, the values returned are the title of the message box, and the text of the control button (in this case "OK").
My issue is that what I really need is the actual text message from the box itself. I've been researching this for days and can't find a way to do this. Nothing I have found so far tells me how to do this.

i have to send emails when a person recieves a personal message on my website and for that i use a StringBuilder to create the HTML markup of the email.also since it is required at many other places as well i have made a Shared Fucntion (i am using VB.NET). now my only concern is that since shared functions are shared among all objects and maybe asp.net sessions, can it be possible that before one person email is being formed and another person access the same function, it would cause the data in the stringbuilder to be overwritten. currently my site doesn't have many users but can this become an issue in the future...please advise me on this...is there any better way or standard procedure to follow when using shared functions.also at one time i made the mistake of using a shared connection object and it would cause close if many people were to access it

I am having trouble extracting the response XML from an XMLHTTP request.
I am currently subscribed to a RSS Feed, [URL]
The code I have only retrieves the first 20 posts rather than all of the 133 posts that I see.
I am linking the problem to cookie settings. I seem to think that the request I am sending is not incorporating the cookie settings that I have on my computer.
You may have to subscribe to a feed to extract more than 20 posts. The standard for RSS feeds (without subscriptions) only allows a user to view 20 posts, HOWEVER, with subscription, the feed's number of posts grows.
Provided is the code I have implemented so far
Sub tester()
Dim xmlreq As MSXML2.XMLHTTP
Dim xmldoc As MSXML2.DOMDocument
Dim strurl As String

I'm semi new to visual basic, and I wanted to know if it is possible to make an RSS feed in visual basic that updates through a homepage that I give a link to and will post the information about the homepage in a text box or in seperate labels and perhaps have them link to the feed it is getting the info from. This I slikely far fetched but if there is any way to bring an RSS feed into the picture for my launcher for world of Warcraft that I am making customly, (Yes I know the regular wow launcher is good but I have a custom one I made with command buttons that lead to forums and homepage and play retail wow along with a private server command button)

I am reading data from an API feed and saving the chunks into files. When the files reach 2 MB I start a new file and write to that file. What happens now is that an entry (<entry></entry>) can get cut off at the end of a file and continues into the new file. I try and reconstruct the files by taking the last entry and combining it with the first entry of the next file but this is tedious handling the data transmission and file creation.
Do
timestamp = DateTime.Now
numbytesread = responseStream.Read(bufferread, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)
If numbytesread > 123 Then
'timestamp = DateTime.Now
responseData = Encoding.UTF8.GetString

How do I consume my WordPress blog's RSS feed to display my latest blog posts on my homepage? I ran into the following piece of code to do this:
Function GetRSSFeed(strURL as String) as DataTable
'Get the XML data
Dim reader as XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(strURL)
[Code]....
But it errors out at this line: 'ds.ReadXml(reader)' with the following error:
A column named 'comments' already belongs to this DataTable.
Perhaps it doesn't work since this code is from 2003? Does anyone have a working code sample?
I have never touched RSS feeds before.

I need to create a application in vb.net that puts out those cool <<Subscribe to ical>> links, which I can prefill with our events and milestones. While I have figured out I need to use DDay.ical.dll to get the events into a .ics file, I am not clear about how to get these to publish. I was thinking of using an RSS feed, but that defeats the purpose of using icals and would require a RSS to ICal converter,which seems unnecessary.
