Added button to Internet Explorer ReBar written in C#

Hi to all,

I was wondering whether this was possible/how it was possible.

I would like to add a custom button to Internet Explorer ReBar.
I believe it is called ReBar or CoolBar; what I mean is the bar in the
Internet Explorer where you have "Back" button. Towards the right, MSN
Messenger had added a button on my computer, for example.

What I would like to do is to add a button and when the user presses the
button, it calls my application, or brings up a side menu (just like the
menu that comes up when you press the favourite button).
I'm sure this is all possible if written in C++ using MFC (since MSN and
Yahoo have done it), but I would like to use C# and .NET for this.

If any of you out there know about this, your reply is much appreciated.

Cheers,

Takuya

Takuya,

Check out the article on the Code Project titled "Extending Explorer
with Band Objects using .NET and Windows Forms", located at (watch for line
wrap):

http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/dotnetbandobjects.asp

Hope this helps.

Nicholas,

Thank you for the information.
I tried to do it, but then I realised my C# Standard Edition didn't support
Windows Control Library. I will get a better version and try again.

Cheers,

Takuya

Each time a webform is posted back (submitted), another URL is added to the browser's history list. My web application allows a back button to return to previously visited pages, but I do not wish to return to each Postback URL, but rather only the initial page URL. Is there a way to prevent Postback URL's from being added to the browser's history list Thanks in advance for any help.

Has IE gotten so complex you can't get the URL from IE? The code at http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0051.htm used to work. Now it returns nothing.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
