VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

This is a combination of a Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Gen.
It connects to the net to check out sites where it downloads the required data, parses it out and then displays it easily for the user to check out.
Great for rappers/songwriters or for making a poem, researching for a project or just having fun!

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

Its great but what I dont like about it is the popups when you do a search because it looks on the internet. If there was away to make it so it doesnt let popups come through or stop the popups it would be perfect....If anyone has any ideas that would be cool

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One
Actually if you add this, it will stop the popups...
VB Code:
```
Private Sub WebBrowser1_NewWindow2(ppDisp As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
End Sub
```

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

Thanks for the comments.
The code Furtim posted should block most popups, however some will still persist.
If I have time I may update this and use the Inet control instead of webbrowser, which would make it work much faster and prevent all popups.

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

The Inet Control is more powerful, yet its tricky to get it working. If you can get the Inet Control to work then the program in theory would have no popups and be alot faster. Later on ill give it a shot and see if I can get it to work...

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

I've used the Inet control many times before to great success.
Let us know if you do it

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

For some strange reason I can't get it to work....maybe you might have to give it a shot.

Unfortunately I have stopped doing it for a while as I've been busy with other things.
If you would like to see what I've done so far, let me know and I will post it here.

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

Sure. You can post it and I can fiddle with it, I've been adding options to it and desiging the form and making it nice and adding different functions.

OK Here it is.
I've almost completed it with the Inet, but I'm too busy at the moment to finish it off.

It still has a few bugs.

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

Unfortunately I too have been busy working on other projects so I haven't had any time for this one. If I get a chance I will try look at it this weekend, but I can't promise anything.

Can't understand! Can anyone explain to me why the Sub is not called and still working to stopping popups?

wow, I deleted the Sub or change Cancel = False, No more popups again! it is weird!

The first time I run it without the Sub poped up an Ad.*** everytime i clicked on the buttons!

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

If you changed it to Cancel = False then it shouldn't be blocking popups.
The sub should be called when the site wants to open a new window, but if Cancel = True then it will cancel the opening of the new window, effectively blocking the popup

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

Well, after I posted that I couldn't get it to work I got aggrivated and deleted everything I did and went back to shirazamod last post that said...

OK Here it is.
I've almost completed it with the Inet, but I'm too busy at the moment to finish it off.

So now I'm back to square one with this...

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

Well, for me if something isn't working I start all over...I don't mess around with code that doesnt work and start over again. Why should I keep messing around with something that isnt working while I could be starting over and making it better? It's not like I got a bad temper...lol

Re: VB6 - Dictionary, Thesaurus & Rhyme-Generator In One

This is one great piece of design that I really like! I wish I knew more of VB6 so I could do the Inet as it seems very promising. If anyone could point me in the right direction or if someone could take the time to finish it. Good job as this is an A+ project.
