How to wrap the VS browser in Chrome? - Niely - Mar 8, 2014
Hello
Right now I'm browsing HackForums with my own browser (looks pretty good, still in process).
And for the most sites it looks okay, but other sites looks really messed up... But really messed up.
I think this is caused by the fact that the Visual Basic browser is wrapped in Internet Explorer.
Is there a way to wrap it into Chrome?
So it has the same HTML/CSS interpret Engine as Google Chrome?
___________
And another little question, how can I let the address bar (where you type the address to go to) change with the page I visit.
Like when I'm browsing a post in hackforums the post URL is really displayed and not just "hackforums.net".
Thanks you all! :)
Thanks for reading,
Niely

For firefox like Browser You can Use GeckFX
and for Chrome you can use WebKit

^Do I just have to insert "WebKit" into the Visual Basic code?

Your own browser? Its not your own browser its internet explorer dropped onto your own form.

Well by setting the text of a textbox to the url when the document is loaded.

Didn't try hard enough.
Code
Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(sender As Object, e As WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted
TextBox1.Text = WebBrowser1.Url.ToString
End Sub* - Niely - Mar 9, 2014
^Ohw, thanks! :)
I'll keep that in my mind.
