Displaying HTML in webbrowser control

If I added some HTML to say, Text1.Text and then create a command button that would add the html from Text1 TO Webbrowser and display it, how would I do that?

I've tried everything:

WebBrowser1 = Text1.Text

WebBrowser1.Document.Body.innerHTML = Text1.Text

Any idea?

Thanks a lot!

I'm fairly sure you have to save it to a temp file, and then navigate to the temp file.

Could be wrong.

Re: Displaying HTML in webbrowser control

:) no you do not have to do that...

Im working on a large tutorial on my website... click HERE to check it out

but here is how you would do that...

VB Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
    WebBrowser1.Navigate "about:blank"
End Sub
 
Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentComplete(ByVal pDisp As Object, URL As Variant)
    If (pDisp Is WebBrowser1.Application) Then
        If URL = "about:blank" Then
            WebBrowser1.Document.write "<HTML>HTML GOES HERE</HTML>"
        End If
    End If
End Sub

Try this ...

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim sHTML as String
sHTML = <your html code>
WebBrowser.Navigate "about:" & sHTML
End Sub

I'm not sure if it works all the time; but yeh, it worked this time!! ;)
