You need to use the Anchor settings.
Click on a object (for example a textbox) and go to Properties window.
Find the Anchor.
Try setting your Google Search bar to

Code:

Top,Right

use TableLayoutPanels, and the "Fill" property next to "Dock" in the Properties panel, takes a getting used to but it'll fix your problem

No dock won't work since it'll fill up his whole application. he needs to use the anchor settings in this case. You can use fill if you have a tabbed web browser because it will fill up the tab control, instead of the form itself.

Just for information on anchor, anchor defines it's position on the form relative to the size of the control or the form itself, so it will resize but stay within the same margins as it began, dock will fill up all of a control's boundaries with the specified option of docking.

thanx guys i dont know how i could do that without u

that's not that hard. looks like a very simple browser, so here would be all you'd need. Do the same for the form load event as well if you want.

vb Code:

Public Class Form1
    'This would be for the initial http request
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        WebBrowser1.Navigate(TextBox1.Text)
    End Sub
    'Here's for the actual navigation event
    Private Sub WebBrowser1_Navigating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserNavigatingEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.Navigating
        Label1.Text = "Loading " & TextBox1.Text
    End Sub
    'Here's after the navigation is done for the web request
    Private Sub WebBrowser1_Navigated(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserNavigatedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.Navigated
        Label1.Text = "Done"
    End Sub
End Class

Just have to make sure that every web request changes the text in the textbox for the address bar on a web/http request, and it'll always get that loading information from the textbox as a second hand event.

thanx bro a loooot

You can dock a TableLayoutPanel with Fill and dock panels in cells (with Fill too) and objects in that cell will dock according to that cell, its pretty cool because you can resize the window and everything will remain the same proportion.


You can also put Tabels inside tabels and panels inside tables haha inception?

No, there is always a correct way to something in programming, and an odd way.
TableLayoutPanel is an odd solution in this case.
The anchor, which I have suggested before is the best tool for the job. Its simple and it works properly with all the elements on the winform.
The TableLayoutPanel is an element itself, which would require you drag-drop all the elements to it.
