I have a question about the webbroswer control regarding anchor tags. Is it possible to programmactically in vb.net go to an anchor tag in a webbrowser control? I would like to ideally provide a combo box drop down on the winform form and control which part of the html page the user goes to when the user makes a selection from the combo box.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to change the UserAgent of the WebBrowser control in a Winforms application.
I have successfully achieved this by using the following code:
[DllImport("urlmon.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Ansi)]
private static extern int UrlMkSetSessionOption(
int dwOption, string pBuffer, int dwBufferLength, int dwReserved);
[Code]....
The only problem is that this only works once. When I try to run the ChangeUserAgent() method for the second time it doesn't work. I stays set to the first changed value. This is quite annoying and I've tried everything but it just won't change more than once.
I have a question about the webbrowser control that I hope someone can answer. I am working on a document retrieval and storing class that uses HTML to display and save data. I want to use the webbrowser control in winforms using VB.Net. I only want to store the fields values in the html document, not the whole document. I am hoping to use labels in html and read them with the DOM of the web browser control but am not sure how to do this.
Has anyone done this before and could someone please provide some sample code on how to do this?

I have the above code sniplet. I am trying to bind the anchor within the literal to a function in a following manner:
onserverclick = "Download"
But the event is not firing. The requirement is that anchor is rendered through literal only.
Has any one experienced this. Never seen it before. Anchoring a Toolstrip Left,Top,Right will resize the strip with out the option of stepping back and undoing it. Forces rolling back the application. Toolstrip is docked at the bottom.
View 2 Replies[URL]..I cannot seem to get a regular panel control to anchor Left/Top/Right while place in a FlowLayoutPanel which is docked to a Form. It defaults to a Left/Top position and I cannot seem to get it to anchor to the Right as well either by code or by manual input in the Properties window.
Does this imply that there is an issue with my VS Studio 2008 Express?
i have a webserver control in my application.i load the web browser control on a button click using the below code
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender
As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
[code]......
Is it possible to anchor a control to another control?Lets say i want my Button1 to keep its 4px distance from Textbox1 control without using FlowLayoutTable control? "Why would be this advantageous?" - one could ask Well lets say you have a SplitContainer with a vertical splitter and you have Textboxes in SplitContainer.Panel1 which are anchored to the left and right but their maximum size's width is smaller than you allow to the SplitContainer.Panel1's width to have (maybe because you want text to show up there or because additional padding or whatever,you name it) Now let's say you also have a button next to Textbox1 and you dont want Textbox1 to be overlapped by the Button1 because its extends to far.If i want to have my textbox fill the SplitContainer.Panel1 in a fashion that it leaves space for Button1 control while still both of them are anchored to the right how would i do it?

I am writing a few web based apps which will require a webbrowser extension. I have already used the IE webbrowser control that uses the trident web rendering engine. I believe this is MSHTML.DLL? Anyway, some of the users of my programs have complained of a few things. Particularily,
1. It seems to be a slow browser, at least compared to other rendering engines out there (webkit and gecko are 2 known ones).
2. On the developer side, it seems to be low in features. The features are sufficient in most cases, but there are some "special" things that I need.
3. It has VERY low HTML (and especially HTML5) compliance.
My question is, how much work would it take to use a different engine (such as webkit .net, which I HAVE heard of) and be able to distribute it easily. Or, if you guys feel ambitious, we could try writing a brand new engine ourselves. I know how big of a job it is, and frankly, I have no clue where to begin. I would just like your thoughts and opinions on the matter.

Ive tried to edit option on the webbrowser control, example javascript enable/disable. but found out that it uses IE's option and cannot be changed.So my question is: Is there a way to do a "webbrowser" without using the WEbbrowser control that is based on internetexplorer? If it is, can i change option example flash and so on?
View 6 Repliesknow the millisecond interval, used by the framework trackbar, between calling the ValueChanged event when moving the grip with a mouse?I've implemented my own trackbar and I'd like the behaviour to be consistent with what the user expects.I've had a look in reflector but it's one of those controls where most of the implementation is not viewable.
ETA: Actually, thinking about it, it's not as simple as that. For small changes, the TrackBar is raising the event for every change. However, if you make a large fast change with the grip, it will not raise the event for every step. Just wondering exactly how the framework does this?

this is my absolute first attempt at the mschart control in a winform, so any help would be appreciated - i have sales reps that issue quotes to customers and would like to plot number of quotes by month using the mschart control.I have a dataset populated with a single table with 2 columns in it - sales_rep and quote_issued_date (there's more, but i'd like to only focus on those two because they contain all the info i need)i have a windows form with an MSChart control dropped on to it. I'm trying to get this to work on a 'column' chart type.i'd like to count the number of records in the dataset per sales rep per monthi'd like to get the x axis to be months in the year (fixed, not drawn from the data) - jan thru dec.
i'd like to get the Y axis to reflect the highest count of rows per rep per month + say....10% (so the graph doesn't peak out at the top every time, it would be more for aethestics)i'd like to get the columns displayed in the graph to be each rep, each month (ie for january john has 10 quotes issued, bill has 5, tom has 31 - for feb john has 3, bill has 10, tom has 19 - etc etc etc) - because the form is just a quick visual, i'm dumping any code in the form load event and calling it good.
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?

View 2 RepliesI would like to have the tabs on my TabControl displayed on the left, or sometimes right.

Though I could write code to do this myself in about an hour or two, I just thought I'd ask first if there is any existing Winforms control that implements such feature.
