i'm developing a WP8 app, and i'm using a webbrowser to show html content.
Im trying to make the background of the browser trasparent. Is it possible?
I've already tried many things, like change webbrowser opacity or edit body content from html but any of them have worked.
Thanks a lot.

I'm trying to make a web browser with VB.NET with Windows Forms, while testing i realised that when i resize the form the tools on the toolstrip disappear. I disabled the CanOverflow but that is still the problem
Can anyone help me?
Hope you guys doing great. I want to capture whole screen of website (from top to bottom) but failed. It is a parallax site template with sticky navbar and when i try to capture screen it actually repeat background images and sticky navbar.
What i tried so far:
fireshot, iweb2.0, Chrome and Mozilla's built in screenshot plugin.
Thanks in advance.
Did you try to use windows Screen Capture ?
All you have to do is press
ALT + Prnt Scrn
keys together. It will help you to take screenshot of your Active Screen then go Paint and use Paste so you can easly do any editing you like.
If your page is longer then one page I suggest you to use Print to File (as PDF or XPS).
Now you have a full webpage in your hand now all you have to do is Export it to jpg or png.
I hope I understand your question properly and answered your question.
I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, i've been looking for examples left, right and centre to no avail.
Anyway, i'm developing an app using Xamarin forms for ios, android and windows phone. The first page of the app is a tabbed page and the first content page consists of a listview with an image (with the source bound to a string with a url) and some labels. I get the data via binding and everything loads correctly except the images. However, when i open a new page and then go back to the tabbed page, the images suddenly appear. I'm testing on a Windows Phone 8.1 at the moment.
Anybody else experienced this? Any work arounds? Any help would be much appreciated.
This might be caused by a known issue that was fixed in 2.2.0-pre1
https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=39447
Try updating to that pre-release version and seeing if it resolves your issue.
If you remove the WebBrowser control from its actual parent and add it to another container a few times, the loaded page in the webBrowser may not be shown.
I made a small Windows Phone solution where it is easily reproducible:
WindowsPhoneSolution.zip
You must press on the upper button a few times and at some point you will see that both WebBrowsers stay blank
(Note: reproducible only in the Emulator WVGA 512MB ! Maybe because my test device is faster? I don't know if it's an Emulator or System Bug)
What I tried so far?
Calling methods with names like refresh, invalidate, etc. on the browser container and the browser control itself
Changing the size of WebBrowser control after switching containers
The only way I could find out to force the content to appear in the case it didn't was using a separate button and when clicking it changing the size of the WebBrowser control (note: the new size should be different to the orginal one). This made the content of the WebBrowser to appear.
I trying to build a Windows Phone 8 Application which is able to sync data from a webservice.
While I'm syncing the data I want to display a little Popup / overlay / flyout but I still want to be able to navigate between my pages while my overlay persists between this pages.
I did this successfully with a Windows RT App: I simply added a Frame-Control on a RootPage which also display the flyout. I navigated then within this frame and the flyout was always there.
How can I achieve this goal within a Windows Phone 8 Application?
You can do it as you did on Windows8 which is to restyle the ``RootApplicationFrame to add your indicator. For an example see http://www.jeff.wilcox.name/2011/07/creating-a-global-progressindicator-experience-using-the-windows-phone-7-1-sdk-beta-2/
Or you could just use the progress indicator in the system tray of the page to add indication there. This is probably the most common approach taken in apps. See how at http://blog.duc.as/2011/10/08/using-the-system-tray-to-show-progress-in-windows-phone-7-mango/
