 getting a complete load of wed page in web browser control Hi folks, If I am not mistaken, the question (or at least my question) is really
centered around the issue of not getting a complete load of the page into
the web control before it returns data to the code which called it.
I issue the "control.navigate URL" syntax, the
control returns what is on the page immediately w/o waiting for the entire
page to load (there may be some CGI on the page, etc.) thereby enabling a
complete set of items through which to loop.
One would think that the Document event would fire when the entire doc is
loaded, but in my case, this event NEVER gets fired off and only part of the
web page is loaded by the control--certainly NOT what is displayed on a web
screen w/ the same URL entered into IE.
I have even tried a "DO while NOT control.ReadyStateComplete, DoEvents,
Loop" to no avail...
Any help on this would be appreciated.
Dan

getting a complete load of wed page in web browser control Perhaps I'm nitpicking: "navigate" is on the interface of IE3. Did you ask for the correct interfaces ? Navigate2 is for IE4 (Unless you are working from the container, if I remember correctly...) Another tip:
Automate IE at first:
If it works from there, check WebBrowser.
I guess the pages in question can be loaded
in a "normal" session ?

getting a complete load of wed page in web browser control (I'm finding a number of control events don't fire if instigated within a FORM_LOAD. If you're at the "but that should work!" point, try putting the code within a SUB Main() or a FORM_Activate and see if that works?) )

getting a complete load of wed page in web browser control Hi and thanks for your reply. Actually, I have tried both Navigate and Navigate2 and I get the same result
each time.
Yes, if you were to plug in the URL I am working with into IE, you would get
or "see" the result I am looking for. However, that same result does not
show up when using the web browser control. VERY odd. Now, on other pages,
say a VERY simple page such as my company's home page
(www.accomplishments.com), indeed, I get the same result in the browser
control as I do in IE. I believe its because the page I am trying to work
with is a "search page" which executes some CGI to come up with the result
which the user sees when the same URL is entered into IE. HOWEVER, if the
control (or my code) was working right, this should not matter. I should be
able to load the entire content into my control...this is a VERY simple
search page w/ no frames, etc. The data, when it is returned comes across in
HTML tags (in other words, "nothing up my sleeve...")
Thanks & any other ideas would be helpful. Just in case anybody wants to
test the URL I am working with it is:
"www.qrz.com/callsign.html?callsign=KA6NMB" Or to further test, try other
search keys (after the "=" sign in the URL) such as "N6JID" or "KD6COY"
Cheers.

Monitor the WebBrowser's "ProgressChange" event. The document is complete when Progress = "-1" Regards,

getting a complete load of wed page in web browser control Dan, I've no problem with by WebBrowser ...
Navigating and getting a documentComplete...
Sometimes (espeially on fast lines) IE5 hangs,
if I try to connect via my WebBrowser.
Perhaps that is it ?
(remedy: get online via ras and surf away...)
