Help on Facebook Login in VB2008

[yummy1yum]

Hello guys, i am now to this forum and i hope i can learn much about vb here =].
The problem i am stating today is that i want this program to log in to
facebook (https://login.facebook.com/login.php?login_attempt=1)
and after that, go to
mousehunt (http://apps.facebook.com/mousehunt/)
to retrieve information from my account.

So far, i've managed to make the application to login to my facebook account but i cannot make it navigate to mousehunt but even if i do so, my account will not be logged in please help.

My code is the following,

Public Class Form1
 
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        
      Me.WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("email").SetAttribute("value", TextBox1.Text)
        WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("pass").SetAttribute("value", TextBox2.Text)
        WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("Login").InvokeMember("click")
 
    End Sub
    Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
        WebBrowser1.Visible = True
 
    End Sub
  Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        WebBrowser1.ScriptErrorsSuppressed = True
    End Sub
 
  End Class

Parts of the code seem to be missing. Where is the WebBrowser1.Navigate? You're going to need to call WebBrowser1.Navigate("http%3A%2F%2Fapps.facebook.com%2Fmousehunt%2F") after your login logic.

Hope This Helps.

Good Luck, it would appear you're just starting out here, and quite frankly web automation isnt the easiest thing to learn vb on..

        Me.WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("email").SetAttribute("value", TextBox1.Text)

        WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("pass").SetAttribute("value", TextBox2.Text)

        WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("Login").InvokeMember("click")
        WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://apps.facebook.com/mousehunt/")

Some things to remember... If the document isnt fully loaded in the webbrowser this code will fail, you might want to investigate the DocumentCompleted event
example:

    Private Sub WebBrowser2_DocumentCompleted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser2.DocumentCompleted
        'do work here
    End Sub

how do you know if your logged into facebook already?

Well how does a user know if he/she is logged into facebook? You're probably going to need to "test" for it somehow, probably in the documentcompleted event. Take a look at this post, it might help you figure out how to do it. http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...ebbrowser+html
