Question WebBrowser Component and Table?!

[alex198555]

Let's say, I have something like a table in the WebBrowser component, it's not actually a table, because the data organized in flash, but, it's organized like a table, it has like rows and columns. You can see more in the attached file.

Can I transform this text organized as table into DataGridView or some another tool that serves as table.

You can either point the WebBrowser to an existing URL (that contains your flash object) or build it within your app using HtmlDocument and WebBrowser.Document

This code I use to insert a Flash chart, but you can use the InnerHtml element to insert any other object (like a table)

 Private Sub YourSubName(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As WebBrowserNavigatedEventArgs)


Dim vDocument As HtmlDocument
            vDocument = ChartBrowser.Document
            Dim vDiv As HtmlElement = vDocument.CreateElement("div")
            vDiv.InnerHtml = FusionCharts.RenderChartHTML("http://www.YourSite.com/flash/FCF_Column3D.swf", "", strXML, "Chart1", "500", "180", True)
            vDocument.Body.AppendChild(vDiv)

 Public Function ChartDisplay(ByVal Doc As String, Optional ByVal IntRef As Integer = 0) As WebBrowser
        ChartBrowser = New WebBrowser
        If ChartBrowser.Document Is Nothing Then
            ChartBrowser.Navigate("about:blank")
        End If

        Select Case Doc
            Case "Test"
                AddHandler ChartBrowser.Navigated, AddressOf YourSubName

The main issue is that the original tables refreshes every 5 minutes! If I use your method, will it appear in the DataGridView as refreshed table or not?

The WebBrowser control emulates IE - so if it works in IE it should work in the control! If the page is being posted back to the server at 5 mins intervals you will see the same effect in any browser
