    Resolved [RESOLVED] Need help with navigating webbrowser to local file

    Hello, I'm trying to navigate a webbrowser, here's my code:

    VB.NET Code:
    1. Dim so As New StringOperations
    2. Dim gPath = p.appPath & "\logo.html"
    3. gPath = "file:///" & gPath.Replace("\", "/")
    4. frm.WebBrowser1.Navigate(so.StringToUrl(gPath))

    Output is:
    Url after encoding: file:///C:/Users/Can/Desktop/oyun_listeleyici/Oyun%20Listeleyici/oyun_listeleyici/bin/Debug/logo.html

    I'm not getting any errors however the browser remains same. Can anyone help me?

    EDIT: I've been dealing with strings / uri's for hours I guess this isn't related to it.

    This worked for me for displaying local files:

    Code:
    WebBrowser1.Navigate(IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "solution.htm"))

    Worked for me too. It's strange we have to hardcode for some things. Thanks a lot.
