Webbrowser Control - Memory Leak - HTTP Web Request Instead Of A Webbrowser?
Mar 18, 2011
i have created an app to load an access database into a datagridview, which contains web urls. When button is clicked it webbrowser1 navigates to each url and each webpages document.inertext is put into textbox.

I have a simple app that has a listbox of URL's.I loop through these url's and display them in a webbrowser control.Ive noticed that on each page load the memory usage goes up from 5-10 megs, and will no go down. Ive researched a TON of solutions online and none seem to help at all.Do any of the pro's here know how to fix this memory issue in a webbrowser control?

I have done a lot of research on the memory leaks present in the WebBrowser control, and the following thread (http:url]...) told me that the only real way to reclaim the memory eaten up by WebBrowser is to load the control in a separate appdomain.I went ahead and did this, but when I unload the AppDomain that the WebbBrowser is created in (using AppDomain.Unload()), the memory is still not freed. I am looking at the Private Bytes of the process in Task Manager (which is accurate and what I'm interested in) to confirm this. The memory usage stays at 50MB+ instead of its default 5MB.Here is my code:
Form1.vb
Imports System.Reflection
Public Class Form1
Private ad_WBInst As AppDomain[code].....

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:

If you click folder it opens new folder contents in WB window but if you click html document it opens in EXTERNAL viewer.
How do you get html document to open in WB while exploring ?

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.

How can i retrieve the HTTP Request generated by the web browser control in .net (3.5). When the user navigates to an html page it may contain images, for every image the web browser control needs to make a HTTP Request. I want to display all HTTP Requests made by the web browser control. Does the web browser control use the httpWebRequest / httpWebResponse Classes internally? if so how can i access these objects?

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?

I was running VS2008 express and WinXP and everything was working great. I'm now running VS2010 Express and Win7 x64
My issue is that I am running a webbrowser control that is loading a page with scripts and I get a "Out of memory at line xxxx" and the page wont finish. I've tried it on XP and it works fine so it is a Win7 issue. I call it by the standard, wb.navigate("link.com") and it errors out. If I do a "process.start("link.com") it opens a new window and works great. If I open IE or firefox standalone, everything works great. It has something to do with my webbrowser so my question is how/why is the webbrowser different than the standard IE webbrowser?
I would try to load a new IE window, but I don't know how to pull and push data to a webbrowser outside of my app. My app does form manipulation in website to streamline manual processes for filling forms out.

I have an VB.NET application that you can feed in using a file or other means a bunch of Website URL's and using six Web Browser Controls launched on separate threads navigate to and then images are captured. Almost instantly the Working Set Size accelerates to 1GB and continually rises as the process progresses until it flat out exhausts memory, of course it's a memory leak.
While watching the Performance monitor CLR managed memory is reasonably low and is being managed properly "cleaned up" as you would expect - Gen0,1,2 are reasonably empty. BUT non managed NET storage is out of control. So my question is: Web Browser controls are NET ActiveX objects... is storage ever allocated for them outside of CLR? And since they are really components of IE does their usage somehow require IE to generate and allocate storage outside of CLR. That is to say using a Web Browser control is just an API for the real the IE full browser and that does allocate storage in a non CLR managed address space.

An application that has 3 Webbrowsers instantiated at design time navigates to webbrowser2 15 times every minute with a different webpage. Webbrowser2 is disposed of after each web page is received and processed. The size of the private application memory continues to grow as when the disposal was not instigated. The application memory grows to 1GB and then the program stops responding. Any suggestions? [Code]

This code was put together for a one time run. It's purpose is to count all the pages in a group of images. After about 6000 of 1,250,000 images in ##X it throws an "out of memory" error. Besides it being thrown together for a one time run does anybody see anything obvious that could be causing the error?

I am utilizing a webbrowser control in vb.net 2005 to display excel workbooks
We are using this control to open excel documents. Webbrowser.ShowSaveAsDialog() allows the user to save the excel workbook open at any location he wants
However, I don't want the user to decide where to save. Is there any way to save an excel document from the webbrowser control without going through the ShowSaveAsDialog?
On closing of webbrowser, a simple prompt to user whether he/she would like to save changes should be fine enough
As of now, I can close webbrowser control and it does not prompt the user to save the changes. Actually, all changes are lost until and unless I perform a save (Ctrl+S) manually

I am having a very strange memory leak that seems related to databinding. It is very hard to reproduce, so I won't post any code here to do so, but will just describe the problem.We have data entry forms which have controls which bind to custom business objects through a BindingSource object.

I am working on a desktop application in VB.net 2005. The application contains a timer with an interval of 1 min. Each time the timer ticks, a set of functions gets executed, mostly database related.Initially the application runs fine. In processes(Task manager) the cpu usage goes to 100% every time the timer is invoked. But the timespan is around 1 sec(negligible).However as the time passes and after around 20 hours the time span of timer_tick increases to something like 20-30 secs. In this period cpu usage is 100% and the application does not responds. Gradually the time span of timer_tick increases to 1 min and the cpu uses gets stuck to 100% and the application does not responds.All objects are properly disposed. Moreover, this issue is with pentium 4 processors. The application runs fine on core 2 duo.[code]Many Select, Update and delete queries are performed in the timer.This problem occurs when I am using around 7000 records in database.

This is a very simple UDP Listener class. I can add it to my applications and give them the ability to accept a text command from a UDP packet. I use it for simple, insecure, non-vital communication between a couple apps. The code as written here works--except it has a memory leak. The program's memory usage will slowly build until it crashes. I believe I'm doing something wrong with the way I do the udp.receive method or perhaps the threading? I was trying to keep it as simple as possible when I wrote this, but let me know if I'm doing anything wonky here.
