How do you make the webbrowser visit more than one page?

[kytro360]

For example I want it to go to one page then when it finishes loading go to another. So I want to to go one from one from one all with the click of a button. Is this possible?



P.S: Another question, just to kill two birds with one stone, how do I make it so whatever is written in a textbox is added to the browser url. For example if the users write 'xyz' that it will add it to Google.com/ as an example and make it Google.com/xyz?

Imagine WebBrowser1.Url was "www.google.com" and textbox1 text was "/youtube"

WebBrowser1.Url += TextBox1.Text

webbrowser1.url would be "www.google.com/youtube"

[kytro360]

Thank you for answering the second question do you know the answer for the first?

[Emcrank]

Have something like this

'DECLARATIONS:
dim I as Integer = 0
'-----------------------------------------
'WEBBROWSER1 DOCUMENT COMPLETED
I = + 1
'-----------------------------------------
'BUTTON 1 CLICK
If (I = 0) Then
          WebBrowser1.Navigate("www.google.com")
ElseIf (I = 1) Then
          WebBrowser1.Navigate("www.youtube.com")
EndIf

Can you reexplain the second part? How can I incorporate question 1 and 2?

[kytro360]

Sorry it didnt work. When I click the button it goes straight to youtube, not first google then when it finishes loading to youtube. Any workarounds?

[kytro360]

Also when I try to add " WebBrowser1.Url += TextBox1.Text " it gives me an error that says: Operator '+' is not defined for types 'System.Uri' and 'String'.

I'm confused about the button. You want to move on to next page when the first page has finished loading OR when the button is clicked?

[kytro360]

Ok when they click the button I want it to go to one site then when it finishes loading the page it will visit another and vice versa. Also there will be a text box next to the button where try fill out there site ad the URL that the button visits will have the URL plus whatever they wrote in the text box as the web address

Dim isMainUrl As Boolean
 
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        isMainUrl = True
        WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://www.google.com/")        '' or whatever 
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted
        If WebBrowser1.ReadyState = WebBrowserReadyState.Complete Then
            If isMainUrl Then
                isMainUrl = False
                WebBrowser1.Navigate(WebBrowser1.Url.AbsoluteUri & TextBox1.Text)
            End If
        End If
    End Sub

yes
.

[kytro360]

But in the code all I see is a spot for one URL?

[Pradeep1210]

That's what you need for what you are telling till now.

1. Browse to a url.
2. Append the textbox text to that url and browse to this new url.

That's all.

Hi, thanks Pradeep1210 i needed that code too thanks

I did a little noob modified code from yours for navigate a listbox, is incomplete but this can help to the user that did the question :

    Dim isMainUrl As Boolean
     
        Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
            isMainUrl = True
            WebBrowser1.Navigate(textbox1.text)        '' or whatever
        End Sub
     
        Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted
            If WebBrowser1.ReadyState = WebBrowserReadyState.Complete Then
                If isMainUrl Then
                    isMainUrl = False
          TextBox1.Text = (ListBox1.Items(ListBox1.SelectedIndex).ToString)
                    WebBrowser1.Navigate(TextBox1.Text)
               ListBox1.Items.Remove(ListBox1.SelectedItem)
            ListBox1.SelectedIndex = ListBox1.SelectedIndex + 1
            Button1.PerformClick()
                End If
            End If
        End Sub

Hey Carlos will your code work or example if I have the sites in a list box and it visits all the sites in the list?

[carlos93]

Yes it will
You only have to select the first item(url) in the listbox then press the button and automatically it will visit each one, the code have bugs for example, you need to select the fist item int he listbox or when the listbox get empty will give you an error.

Try it ^^

PD:Sorry for my english im a spanish guy D:

[kytro360]

Sweet thanks Carlos I think your code will help a ton in my project. Also I wanna add a label that changes to success if the page was successfully loaded or failed if it didn't work. Should I add if then statements?
