HTML doc save dialog

[joseph.inglis]

I have a web browser object on a form which I have set to edit mode and use
the UCOMIConnectionPointContainer interface to hook in and catch events.

All working sweetly.

Except there are instances where i rewrite the Document.Content and the
first keypress results in a default windows "Content has changed, Save"
dialog.

How can I suppress this? This does not happen on my machine here and is only
apparent on clients machine. It did at one point during development many
months ago then stopped so... ive maybe done something my end... but what?

All used .dlls are with the application and were both on .NET 1.1

Instead of using Navigate method, use Navigate2 method in browser object.

Thanks for your reply shak... I already do that.

web1.Navigate2(ref o, ref oEmpty, ref oEmpty,ref oEmpty, ref oEmpty);

web1.NavigateComplete2+=new

Nope, been around this road. I do have a toolbar and I do have methods for
cut/paste/indent/bullets etc as you describe.

But not for save. Im not doing that.

What im doing is this. Im only actually saving the part inbetween <body>
tags in a database. In order to refresh the page I get a an existing entry
from the database, create a string that represents the entire html document
content and set this to the
HTMLDocumentClass.body.innerHTML

property. I do the reverse and parse out when changing documents. So
essentially its the same document, in fact, totally. This all works smoothly
here but performing this action on the clients machine generates the "Save"
dialog.

Its been driving me nuts for weeks. I hope im being a bit clearer, I should
have been in the first place so I apologise.

Joseph,

Thanks for ellaborating the problem

If you replace or do something with the tags, the modified flag will be set
to true in the HTMLDocumentClass even if its same data, and thats why you
get the save dialog. There is no way to supress them.

To get through with this problem

1. After getting the string from database do not set the string to
body.InnerHTML
2. Instead flush the string to a temprory "test.html", adding proper start
and end html tags.
3. Navigate this temp file using browser component
4. In the document complete event of browser, get the new document again

//refresh the object again
pHTMLDoc = (HTMLDocumentClass)DesignBrowser.Document;

5. Since its a new navigation, the browser will discard the old document,
and you wont get that save dialog.

There are few options still left to try out. Let me know if this doesnt work

Ive just discovered assumption is the mother of evils.

Coding as you suggested Shakir reintroduced the bug to my machine. So that
set me to thinking about your previous comment regarding the tags being
changed. In this version, and most recent, the initial url parameter passed
to navigate2 is "about:blank". I then parse the content and do my thing
which works well.

When I've read/wrote a new entry from the database I then parse using the
same methods. The trick there of course was that this way the actual
document never changed... naviagate2 is only ever called once, which is when
the dialog is generated... when the changed flag is true and you navigate to
a new page.

So how could the client be reporting this error? The pest. He was pasting
from an old set of test notes and *had never re-tested it* simply submitting
it as an error.

Shakir, apologies on my part for having you running around on this when in
fact... there was never a problem. Tis my job to also be aware of gotchas
like this... lesson for us all which is why im humbling myself a little and
posting ;-)

Dont trust your clients results to be de-facto. I assumed, as he was
reporting it, that it was one of the 'happens here but not there' bugs that
can be wild to track down. Ive worked on it at least 1 day and felt the need
to mail the list with it.

And all along the client was either working from an older exe or simply
pasting an old bug. Again, thanks for your help Shakir.

Watch them pesky clients... they can fairly generate dummy work if you let
them... as i just did. Ooops.
