Document.GetElementById in .NET Compact Framework

Question

hi everyone, I am trying to write a program in WINCE using Visual Studio 2005 (VB.NET)

it's like a login page for user to login to yahoo(for example).

 

WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://login.yahoo.com/")

WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("login").SetAttribute("value", TextBox1.Text)
WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("passwd").SetAttribute("value", TextBox2.Text)
WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById(".save").InvokeMember("click")

But I find that the webbrowser.Document is not supported by .NET Compact Framework.

 

Is there any other way to preform this kinda function in smart device?

Thanks :)

Probably you have a better chance for a reply in a CE framework forum. 

You can test yourself what the AXWebbrowser (the Com version of the Webbrowser) will do for you.

Take a look at this message from Martin

Be aware that it is the SHDocVB.dll, the part which is standard in all newer Windows OS systems to do the IE and Explorer work.

 to login to yahoo(for example)

 

Hi Vichk,

The following example is about automatic login to yahoo

Code:

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        WebBrowser1.Navigate("https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?")
    End Sub

    Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted

        Dim theElementCollection As HtmlElementCollection = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("Input")
        For Each curElement As HtmlElement In theElementCollection
            Dim controlName As String = curElement.GetAttribute("id").ToString
            If controlName = "username" Then
                curElement.SetAttribute("Value", "[e-mail]") ' here you put your yahoo email
            End If
        Next

       

        theElementCollection = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("Input")
        For Each curElement As HtmlElement In theElementCollection
            Dim controlName As String = curElement.GetAttribute("id").ToString
            If controlName = "passwd" Then
                curElement.SetAttribute("Value", "71652392")  'password
            End If
        Next

        theElementCollection = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("button")
        For Each curElement As HtmlElement In theElementCollection
            Dim controlName As String = curElement.GetAttribute("id").ToString
            If controlName = ".save" Then
                curElement.InvokeMember("click")
            End If


        Next
    End Sub
End Class

Hi vichk,

I noticed you have posted this in Smart Device forum as well. I am going to merge it to keep them in one thread.

Thanks,
