Web Control in Windows Form

[Miky]

Hi,

I have the following problem:

I have a .CFM web page and I have to populate, from VB, two textboxes on it.
I
was thinking using sendkeys (even if I don't like it too much) but when I
open the web browser and navigate to the selected page, I cannot set the
focus to the html part of the control (only the web control takes the focus)
so I can't use sendkeys to populate the fields I need.

I made the same with another web site (in html), but I create a local .HTML
file that
simulates the form and then redirect the process to the original website
getting back the results. This sounds that cannot be done with a .CFM page
(if it is possible, please may you tell me how?), in fact I can redirect to
the original web site but I got the same page (blank) and not the results.

Any idea is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
LDV-ME.

Hi Peter,

thanks for your response and sorry for the vagueness of my
question. Yes, by Web Control, I meant Web Browser ActiveX
(AxWebBrowser). Exactly, I want to populate a web form and
submit that and retrieve the result. When I try with the
website I am interested on, it doesn't return the results.
I will look into the HTML object library.

Thanks,
LDV-ME.

Hi Miky,

What do you mean by Web Control, do you mean the Web Browser ActiveXcontrol?
Since the WebControl can not be used with Windows Form.

If so, I can not reproduce the problem.
I tested with the code below.
AxWebBrowser1.Navigate ("http://enterprisesecurity.symantec.com/products/products.cfm?productID=3")

It seems that you wants to automation the populate the Form on the WebForm.I think you may try to use the Microsoft HTML Object Library which is usedto manipulate the HTML DOM.
