Webbrowser Javascript Link Click Help
I'm trying to "click" a link on a webpage using a vb program and the webbrowser control. I have searched this site and many others but with no help. I know how to click a standard link but the one I'm working on now is javascript.

Here is the code from the webpage that I'm trying to click.

Code:
<a class="pagingLink" href="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$cpMain$pagerTop','5')">Next &rsaquo;</a>

I got the program to work by using

Code:
WebBrowser1.Document.links(0).Click

and I would continue to go this route but the index of where that link is changes each page load. any ideas?

and this method does not work for me

Code:
WebBrowser1.Navigate "Http://www.mywebsite.com?javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$cpMain$pagerTop','2')

WebBrowser: Open Link In Other WebBrowser
Hi

I have a question about the webbrowser control to which I haven't found an answer:

I have one form with two webbrowser objects (WebBrowser1 and WebBrowser2). The first WebBrowser loads an html site containing links. When I now click on one of these links, I would like the WebBrowser2 to open the page, the webbrowser1 should stay the same. How do I do that?

Any help is much appreciated....

Thanks

WebBrowser Link
Hello, i have been searching for a while and I cannot find an example that works...

I have a webbrowser1 and webbrowser2 (default names).
In broswer1 im loading main.htm using the app.path command.

I want it when a user clicks a link within main.htm to load in browser2 instead of broswer1, so that they can view main.htm in browser1 and the newly clicked link in browser2 which are side by site.

Link Click
on my internet thingy, when I click a link... nothing happens, why not?

Click Link!
Assume that a web browser project has a Boolean variable named blnNavigated. The browser also has the Back & Forward buttons for users to navigate.

What I want is if a user clicks a link in a web page to navigate to another page, then blnNavigated should be set to True but if the user navigates using the Back or Forward button, then blnNavigated should be set to False. Setting blnNavigated to False can be done in the Back & Forward buttons' Click event function but how do I set blnNavigated to True if the user has clicked a link in the web page to navigate to another page?

Can A Link In A Webbrowser Open A New Browser That's Not IE?
I have a webbrowser control in my application and in the page that loads on startup, there are links that open in new browser windows.

From what I understand, the webbrowser is just emulating IE, but is it possible to make the user's default browser open (instead of IE) when they click on links in the page?

If not, I'm thinking I'll just dynamically rewrite the html in the pages that load, so that all links open in the webbrowser control, and not a new browser...

any ideas?

thanks

How To Simulate Click On A Link With Javascript
Hi,

I am trying to simulate clicks on a link of a web page using vb6 and the webbrowser control. The link contains a tag like this:

<a href="javascript:;" class="someName"> inner text </a>

I can find the object of this A tag (let's call it objCur), but when I use this code to simulate the click, it does not work.

objCur.Click

It once worked when the link did not contain javascript, but not now.

I have also tried these:

objCur.InvokeMember ("Click")
objCur.raiseevent ("Click")

but none of them worked. But how to make it work for link like <a href="javascript:;" ? I tried several hours but no answers found. Please help! Thanks in advance!

WebBrowser: Replace Part Of Url Link Within Page ?
Hello:
Im wondering if this is possable, bare with me, not sure how to word this.

Im using a WebBrowser Control which loads a page with a bunch of links in it.
The links are formatted like; wwwaddress.com?todo=whatever&somthing=else

What i would like to do is have it so when the user clicks one of the links it will drop the last part of the url and only pass/load; wwwaddress.com?todo=whatever with-out the &somthing=else.

I know how to "split" the urls to be how i would like them, but i do not know how to have my edited link/url "active" within the page.

I thouhgt i could do somthing in the BeforeNavigate2 function, but to no avail.
Then i thought i might be able to do something in the DownloadComplete, somthing to the effect of:
wb1.Document.documentElement.innerhtml = MyEdits and just replace the whole html source, but you cant do that

The only other thing i can think is saving my edited HTML source and load that source into the Browsercontrol as a new page. Is there any way around that ?

Im using VB6.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Cannot Link To Help In Rt-click Popup Menus Using HelpContextID
I have several controls/programs that use rt-click popup menus. I would like to link the items in the menu to certain places in the Help file.

I figured that setting the "HelpContextID" for each menu items would accomplish this. However, when I press the F1 key it does absolutely nothing. The "HelpContextID" property works for other controls (forms, ...) - but won't work for me with any of these rt-click popup menus.

Any ideas? Is there something I'm missing?

Open A Link From WebBrowser Control In Default Browser?
On a WebBrowser control (that uses Internet Explorer engine), I need to open the links of the page displayed, on a new window of the default browser, instead of forcing the user to use IE.

I could strip the HTML code to get the URL, put a layer on top of the WebBroser control, to then open the link on the default browser, but this would be lame.

How to do this in a (good) way?

Changing Destination Object Of Link In Webbrowser Control
Project attached ...

In the NewWindow2 event of the WebBrowser control I am trying to set the ppDisp object to one of the other WebBrowser controls in the array. It doesn't work how it apparently should. According to what I've read it should be as simple as ppDisp = webPage(index) but it appears that it's not that simple - the new window opens anyway.

Remember to use [code=vb][/code] tags around code.
