I am designing the 8th update to my tabbed vb web browser (found at swordfish.savershot.net)in VB Express 08 and I'm having trouble with something. Whenever a webpage wants to open a link in a new tab (aka: Google Drive New Document), Internet Explorer turns on and runs the tab through them. I understand how it happens, because VB.NET by default uses IE as their Web Browsing core. However, I do not like it and I would love to be able to set those links to either open in a new tab in my browser or a new window in my browser. I have found a way to cancel the operation altogether but that's not very user friendly and I'd love to get my browser to a level where I can actually use it comfortably without annoying issues occurring. Thanks for the help.
Im creating a freeware application (long live the free community) and I'm trying to add various features that might drive people to use the application such as implementing whatsapp web https://web.whatsapp.com/ into the app so that the user will always have an "always on top" window with their chats rather than everytime having to switch tabs if they're multitasking on their browser.
The problem i am having is that the built in Browser control with VS 2013 does not work with whatsapp web and i get the option to use supported browsers like firefox...chrome...safari.
Is there anyway to make a VB.NET application open an actual chrome/firefox based browser within itself?
I found an article on Gecko Browser...I am not sure if web.whatsapp.com would see this as a firefox browser: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?692005-Mozilla-Firefox-Gecko-Xulrunner-in-VB-NET-%28versions-14-and-up%29
Help appreciated.
I have been using below code for a while to click on all non-web application based popups. ex windows security login popup in case my web app tries to upload a file. All worked fine so far all of sudden the same code stops working and hangs at the popup screen but works if i have break point in my visual studio code.
WinWaitActive("Windows Security",,7)
ControlClick("Windows Security",,"Button2")
I have crossed checked the OK button name nothing has change but the above code refuse to work any more. Using Visual studio 2010 vb.net.
Have you tried using the ImageSearchDLL? It allows you to take a screenshot of a button (or image, link, etc.) and use it as a reference for where to click. For more usage info and to download sample code look here: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/65748-image-search-library/page-4
I installed Office Web Apps SP2 on our SharePoint 2010 farm this past weekend. I've observed that the service applications have been created and I've activated the feature at the site collection level. The word viewing service is started on all my WFE machines. When I access word documents from a library by clicking them or saying "view in browser", the site brings me to a blank document. No errors. I just get a blank document with a very basic ribbon that belongs to Word with buttons on it for 'file', 'open in word' and 'edit in browser'. However, if I hit "Edit in Browser", the site displays the document.
I'm not finding much interesting in the Sharepoint logs, even with OWA logging turned up to verbose. Excel documents come up fine in the browser without such a procedure.
I had no such issue when I installed office web apps in our TEST SP2010 farm.
Any ideas what I can look at next?
The powerpoint and word reader service applications had not been created as expected by the setup. Creating these solved our problem immediately.
I am trying automate Microsoft Dynamics CRM application using Selenium RC, I am unable to handle the modal(child browser) windows. Every time Selenium clicks to open modal window ( selenium.selectWindow("windowName")) I am getting the following error.
There was an unexpected Alert! [A Microsoft Dynamics CRM window was
unable to open, and may have been blocked by a pop-up blocker. Please
add this Microsoft Dynamics CRM server to the list of sites your
pop-up blocker allows to open new windows:
As per the research I tried to add the sever site to trusted sites and also added the site to popup blocker allow list but no gains.
Please direct to me right way of handling it
For some reason Microsoft Dynamics CRM thinks it cannot open the popup window, so it wants to show an alert indicating that. Selenium sees the alert and since it is not expected (you didn't call getAlert()), so the next selenium action (which is selecting the window if I understand correctly) fails.
Maybe you need to wait for the window to actually appear before selecting it?
Check what happens if you set a breakpoint just before the selectWindow() and step through it.
Also try the same steps manually. Do they work?
Remember that selenium uses its own default profile for browsers, so your popup blocker settings may not get through. Which browser is this?
What you can do is accept the popups in the Internet Security, and un-mark the Browse in Secure mode. Close your browser.
Then try it in FireFox and after that do it in Internet Explorer again.
