Using VS2003, VB.NET,
I have a windows app the has a AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser control. One of
the pages that gets loaded in the AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser control has a
button that the user clicks to submit information... I need my VB.NET
winsdows application to reeact to this HTML onclick event. I'm really
not sure how to accomplish this... any pointers would be greatly
appreciated.

Attach onclick event to link element.

private void webBrowserSecured_DocumentCompleted(object sender,
WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e)

{

HtmlElement btn = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("Button1") as
HtmlElement;

btn.AttachEventHandler("onclick", new EventHandler(ButtonClicked));

}



private void ButtonClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)

{



string txt1 = ((mshtml.HTMLInputElementClass)
(WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("TextBox1").DomElement)).IHTMLInputElement_value;

}



WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("ElementId").DomElement gives the
element type.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I'll give that a try...


To muddy the water a bit, I'm not looking for submitted string but
rather I'll be trying to determine which radio button in a radio
button group has been selected... I assume I'll just be able to get to
this from the DOM elements exsposed by the AxWebBrowser's document
object - is that correct?

I believe as long as you know the ElementID/name of the radio button
you should be able to get it.

Great - thanks again fro the help...
Once I test it out I'll reply here with my results....

A couple of other issue I know that I will run into:
(1) the pages (HTM) I am loading produce multiple
"...DocumentCompleted" events - I believe this is because the pages do
javascript redirects based on object detection. Regardless, do you
know of a way to reliably determine if the browser is still loading
content (some of the pages that may also have iframes/frames).

(2) not all the documents that will be opened in the AxWebBrowser
control will be HTM... some will be PDFs or some other MS office
document. Therefore, I won't be able to blindly attached "onclick"
events when the "...DocumentCompleted" event fires. So, is there a way
to determine what type object has just "completed".... and of course
what type of object will I be looking for when my HTM pages load.

I've just started trying to implement this... but I'm running into
problems.
Right off the bat, when I try to use intillisense to get my "Browser"
properties, the only property avaliable under "Document" is
"GetType"... "GetElementById..." isn't listed. Also, I am not able
reference the "HTMLElement" object...

I figure this must be a reference/import issue - so here's what I have
now:
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports mshtml 'Just added...

Under references, I do have a reference to MSHTML...

What else am I missing?
