    navigate to the href of the link
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    Hello,
    I have found resolution, but for VB_NET. I use VB6, can you translate to VB6?
    thx

    Re: VB6: Webbrowser - open link in same window

    that is easy enough to do in vb6, but it would still appear like a new browser window, rather than opening in the same window

    vb Code:
    1. Dim f As Form1
    2. Set f = New Form1
    3. f.Caption = "My New Form"
    4. f.Show
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.

    Under the WebBrowser control's "New Window" event, add this code:
    Dim myElement As HtmlElement = WB.Document.ActiveElement
    Dim target As String = myElement.GetAttribute("href")
    WB.Navigate(target)
    e.Cancel = True
