Set Focus on WebBrowserControl Item

[joefox]

I have the below code that looks for a textbox on the webbrowsercontrols current webpage, and sets focus on it.

When i run my app, it throws the errro below. if i press "yes" everything works fine, if i put "supress errors" option in the webbrowsercontrol, no errors but dosent work.



Here is code.

        Dim htmlEl As HtmlElementCollection = WebBrowser1.Document.All

        Dim iEnum As System.Collections.IEnumerator = htmlEl.GetEnumerator()

        While iEnum.MoveNext()
            Dim temp As HtmlElement = DirectCast(iEnum.Current, HtmlElement)

            If temp.Name.Trim().ToLower().Equals("status") Then
                temp.InnerText = TextBox1.Text
                temp.InvokeMember("focus")

                Dim htmlEls As HtmlElementCollection = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("input")
                For Each htmle As HtmlElement In htmlEls
                    If htmle.GetAttribute("value").Contains("Share") Then
                        SendKeys.Send("{TAB}")
                        SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}")
                    End If
                Next

            End If
        End While

You need to read the control using .getElementById . Does that control has any id ?

[joefox]

It does, but the id changes everytime i go to the page.

id=\"c4ca9e92b52d1c1fc0d282_input\"

Also, what happens is, I have to click on it, for it to popup the real textbox..

oh. What event you are handling this one ?
