Internet Explorer Toolbar programming?

hiho@ll

i want to make a IE Toolbar which has a newsticker built in
the problem i have is i don't really know how to use static text in a
toolbar?
the second question will be, how can i change the text of the label
randomly?

the problem i have:
i didn't write the toolbar and i'm not an expert on this topic ;-)
but i think it works like this:
1. create a window using CreateWindow function
2. use SendMessage to initialize default settings
3. set static text

the toolbar has a combo box which seems to work this way
for the combobox the messages CB_INITSTORAGE, CBEM_SETIMAGELI ST are used
to initialize them

my question is which messages are available to do this with a static?
which class i can use for the static text?
or do i have to prog this on my own? (e.g. make a window and draw some
text on the window? how this is done?)

or anybody knows some resources where i can get good information about
programming a IE toolbar? (i didn't find some which helps!)

the 2. main question i have is:
how can i change the http header before it is sent using my Toolbar?
if the header should be changed depends on what header should be sent and
the website which gets requested
i tried it with DISPID_BEFORENA VIGATE2 event, but i only get headers which
are explicitly sent to navigate
which means (e.g.) the referer isn't available
i found www.debugbar.com which is a IE toolbar which can show ingoing and
outgoing http headers!
so it seems to be possible, but how?

thx@ll

Good day group, I have made a toolbar for Internet Explorer using C# and COM interop. I would like to be able to show a drop-down window appearing to come down from beneath the toolbar area, but I don't know how to determine the exact coordinates to use. My base class contains a reference to the WebBrowserClass, and I can get the coordinates of the main window, so my problem is that I am unable to determine how many toolbars are...

Hello: I would like to develop a browser extension, or whatever such a thing is classified as, that would allow a user of IE6, and possibly IE7, to switch between a live and development page.

I have a page that I created with ASP.NET which contains a RadioButtonList. This obviously shows up as input tags in the generated page. When I was looking at the page with the free Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar utility, it showed me the id, type, and name attributes, but not the value attribute. Even if I select the "Show Read-Only Properties" option, it does not show me the value attribute. I know it is in the generated code,...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
