    Resolved [RESOLVED] Combobox - Website problem.

    Hey.

    I want my program to copy all the options in a combobox. and paste it into ComboBox2 in my program.

    Here is the combobox i want to copy. http://www.itslearning.com/welcome.aspx

    After the user has selected an option from the box, and pressed button1, the program should enter the value of combobox1 into the combobox at the website.

    I'm ofcorse doing all this using WebBrowser1.

    Can someone please give me a code i can use. I'm a noob and need help.

    Thanks!

    Re: Combobox - Website problem.

    Doesn't seem to work... I don't get any error messages, but the combox1 doesn't seem to load the options.

    I press combobox1 (When in debug mode) and there only comes a tiny rectangle down with nothing in it... Where's all the options?? Please help

    Sure. Here you go. (Note: In my last post i said combobox1. It's actually combobox2)

    Code:
    Public Class Form1
    
        Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
            Dialog1.ShowDialog()
        End Sub
    
        Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
            'open website in wb
            WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://www.itslearning.com/welcome.aspx")
            'fill combobox
            If WebBrowser1.ReadyState <> WebBrowserReadyState.Complete Then Return
            Dim element As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_LoginSection1_ChooseSite_site_input")
            Dim options() As String = element.GetElementsByTagName("option").Cast(Of HtmlElement).Select(Function(el) el.InnerText).ToArray
            ComboBox2.Items.AddRange(options)
        End Sub
    
        Private Sub ComboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox2.SelectedIndexChanged
            'select combobox item in webpage
            If ComboBox2.SelectedIndex <> -1 Then
                Dim element As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_LoginSection1_ChooseSite_site_input")
                Dim optionsElement As HtmlElement = element.GetElementsByTagName("option").Cast(Of HtmlElement).First(Function(el) el.InnerText = ComboBox2.Text)
                optionsElement.SetAttribute("selected", "selected")
            End If
        End Sub
    End Class
