group:No KeyDown events after placing OpenNetCF webbrowser control?
dotnet compact framework:
Hi,
I've had a problem with not getting any KeyDown events in my program for some time. After some experimenting with empty forms I found out that they stopped being raised after putting a webbrowser control on the form.
So far I've only added some code to the KeyEventHandler of the form and
the webbrowser component. The .Net 2.0 webbrowser control doesn't have any key events as it seems. [quoted text, click to view] <ctacke/> wrote:

So the entire app quits getting key down events? How are you trying to trap

I'm not surprised about that. If the browser has the focus, and I'd be
surprised if it didn't, why would keys end up at your form? The browser is using them. For this kind of thing, RegisterHotKey() may be an appropriate solution, although you may want to unregister your hotkeys for the cursor when your application is deactivated, so that the user doesn't get action in your application when using the keys in some other application. Alternatively, use ApplicationEx from OpenNETCF and an IMessageFilter to catch all keypresses and do whatever with the cursor keys as they arrive. Paul T.

The browser is just wrapping the real native control, I'm sure. That's what
has focus and, if that's true, the keys don't pass through managed code event handlers before going to the real control. Paul T. [quoted text, click to view] "Felix Joachim" <felix339@web.de> wrote in message

Hi,
can somebody confirm this problem, or is there some easy solution? What I wanted to do is let the user use the hardware cursor keys to do some stuff in the application while the webbrowser component is activated. At the moment I don't get any key events when a browser is on the form though. [quoted text, click to view] Felix Joachim wrote:

Of course the form won't get events if the browser has focus.
Why doesn't the browser get any then though, if I put some code in it's key-events? [quoted text, click to view] Paul G. Tobey [eMVP] wrote:
