    Resolved [RESOLVED] Loop Through HTML Form Elements!

    I am using the WebBrowser control. I want to find out what are the different HTML Form elements existing in the web page a user is currently viewing. How do I do that?

    Thanks,

    Arpan

    Re: Loop Through HTML Form Elements!

    Reference the MS HTML Object Library
    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub Form_Load()

    2. WebBrowser1.Navigate "http://www.vbforums.com/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=1"

    3.  
    4. End Sub

    5.  
    6. Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentComplete(ByVal pDisp As Object, URL As Variant)

    7. If (pDisp Is WebBrowser1.Application) Then

    8.     On Error Resume Next

    9.     Dim wForm As HTMLFormElement

    10.     Dim wElem As HTMLInputElement

    11.     Set wForm = WebBrowser1.Document.Forms(1) 'Note the ONE (its actually the Second Form)

    12.     For x = 0 To wForm.elements.length

    13.         If TypeOf wForm.Item(x) Is HTMLInputElement Then

    14.             Set wElem = wForm.Item(x)

    15.             Debug.Print wElem.Name & ": " & wElem.Type

    16.         End If

    17.     Next

    18. End If

    19. End Sub

    Re: Loop Through HTML Form Elements!

    Thanks, Static, that's exactly what I was looking out for.

    BTW, to access all the hyperlinks existing in a web page, one can use wWeb.Document.All.tags("a") or to access the Forms, one can use wWeb.Document.All.tags("form").Name.

    I would like to know like ("a"), ("form"), what are the other tags?

    Re: Loop Through HTML Form Elements!

    look in the html...
    <BODY> - body
    <A HREF> - a
    <FORM> - form
    <TABLE> - table
    etc...
    it should be any of those < > tags...

    Re: [RESOLVED] Loop Through HTML Form Elements!

    I'm trying the same thing, but using VS2010. I am getting an error after referencing MS HTML Object Library. The culpert seems to be

    WebBrowser1.Application

    is not a member of 'System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser'

    What can I do to avoid this error?

    Welcome to VBForums

    You are asking in completely the wrong place. While VB6 and VB.Net (VB 2002 and later) both have 'VB' in their names, they are very different languages.

    You should post a thread in our VB.Net forum instead.
