    - IE7 Opens in Unprotected Mode Using Process.Start in .NET Development Hi, this is a very basic question but I haven't found the solution to it, basically I just want to open IE7 to show a webpage from a .NET application. if I use for example: Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(" http://forums.microsoft.com ") End Sub It opens IE7 but it opens in NOT protected mode and then it hangs and doesn't allow you to do anything with it. I have to close it from the task manager I guess my problem is that I should use some kind of arguments in the Starts. but I really don't know what to do, thanks for your help and sorry if it is not the best place to post it.

    - IE7 protected mode hWnd problem Hello and thank you for helping. I'm running Windows Vista RC1 - 5724. I'm trying to open up a new IE windows, navigate and then bring it to the front. My application runs with normal security. If IE is in protected mode, the hWnd returned is not helpful, because as I can see it, it runs ieuser.exe which runs iexplore.exe again in protected mode... which has another hWnd handle... if IE is NOT in protected mode, hWnd returned correctly and the IE windows is brought to the front.. the code is: CComPtr<IWebBrowser2> spWebBrowser; hr = spWebBrowser.CoCreateInstance(CLSID_InternetExplorer, NULL, CLSCTX_SERVER); hr = spWebBrowser->Navigate(bstrFullUrl, &var, &var, &var, &var); hr=spWebBrowser->get_HWND( reinterpret_cast <PLONG>(&hWnd)); Call My function - BringToFront(hWnd); I started thinking to CoCreateInstace as a low user (How can I do that !) - because it won't run the IEuser.exe - which will give the right hWnd, but couldn't find anything to help me with this approach.

    - Where is the best place to put settings button in IE 7? I'm developing BHO add-on for IE 7 and I need to have settings dialog for my app. I'm not sure what will be the best place to put button which will open the dialog. In IE 6 I would probably add button to the menu, but in IE 7 menu is hidden by default, so I don't want put my button there. Right now I can see only one place where I can put this button, it's "Tools" Dropdown button (on the right side of Tab control). Is it right place to put it If so, does anybody has example how to put buttons there Is it possible from BHO Thank.

    - IE 6 /7 closes without warning Hi and help.. I run Xp pro v 5.1 Sp2 on a dell 6400 laptop. I've started to get a problem with IE6 where it closes down without warning (which is very annoying!) I've run through McAfee updates and viruscheckers and removed anything vaguely suspicious and no change. I purchased REGcure and ran that as well removed varoius assorted 'problems' and still have the same problem. Finally i went for broke and downloaded IE7 in the hope that this would fix things. Nope. Still i get a no warning closedown of IE& after about 3-5 minutes of normal(browsing/email) use has anyone any ideas on this The only thing that has changed in the last couple of months was that i installed 'MS Groove' which has really just been sitting there doing nothing.

    - Preventing control-clicking text in IE7 from highlighting text Does anyone know how to prevent control-clicking text in IE7 from highlighting the text block I need to use control-clicking for another purpose and the default behavior is getting in the way. This behavior is clearly implemented on mouseDown, but efforts to intercept the event or block it from bubbling seem to have no effect.

    - IE7 Start up problem Get 'Spysites' from Camtech2000 and SpywareBlaster They're 'Preventative' measures that load restricted sites and 'Sites' in cookie control area of IE6 and IE7. Adaware and Spybot usually come up clean if IE6 controls are set correctly. I usually find 1 or no items every week. How can a "cookie manager" beat IE6's controls If you use iespyad, spysites, and SpywareBlaster, they load almost 7K of restricted cookies into the block list. I have 1st. and 3rd. party cookies blocked 24/7, always allow session cookies checked,( session cookie has to be checked to work with edit features), and under edit button,( "sites" with SP2) I only have 7 ( I think) sites on the allow list which will act like a firewall "pass list". If I don't delete cookies for a year, and look in cookie folder, I never find more than the 7, and that's only if I visit all 7 sites during the year. Set Tools, Internet Options, Privacy, Advanced, Block 1st. and 3rd. Party cookies; Check "Always allow session cookies", hit OK. THEN Click EDIT,(or SITES) in SP2, Type in or paste paypal.com for instance, Click allow. Check OK as you close each menu. After a year of surfing, that's the only cookie to be found in that folder. YOU WILL KNOW WHEN A SITE YOU NEED WON'T WORK AND CAN ADD THAT SITE AT THAT TIME IF IT'S NECESSARY. One Caveat; Excite sets a tracking cookie, and after every update of SpyWareBlaster, I have to locate it at bottom of list, and right click, select Ignore list and addd it to the ignore list, or uncheck excite, pick Remove Protection. PS: Now clear all cookies for a fresh start. Clear temp files regularly. SpywareBlaster preloads your "White List" with thousands of Bad sites on the Block List in Internet Explorer. A sidebar: Get Camtech2000's free version of Spysites. It not only loads restricted sites into Internet Explorers " Restricted Zone , but it tells you what each site puts on your computer. Read their " worst offender" list. Some "cookies" have java script viruses. Get updates through it's help menu. Be sure to download CCLeaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ and run it every day! If you use AOL browser, you have to open IE window to set the controls. I dumped IE7.

    - Installation and registration woes Hi, I'm fairly new to IE Add-on development so please go easy on me, any how here's my story: I have a small C# project that basically acts as a auto-filler for web-forms for our intranet so that working fine and dandy. I then converted this app into a BHO by making the winform app into a DLL with the pre-requisite Active and GUID to make a BHO. So that was done and working too. I used regasm MyApp.Dll /codebase and works a like charm on three dev boxes(two XP-pros both running IE 7.0 and one XP Home runninge IE 6.0) but when I release to the two data-entry clerk laptops my BHO app doesn't work at all. The puzzling bit is that it registers as an add-on can be viewed when you goto Tools->Manage Add-Ons->Enable / Disable Add-Ons and it is enabled. The app is runniong under .Net 1.1 we haven't migrated to 2.0 just yet, the data entry machines are running XP Pro (2002) SP 2 and only on .Net Framework which is 1.1 So question is, how can I debug this is there some free tool out there that I can use any tips as far a registry and permission settings that I should check I would really appreciate any help as am almost bald because of too much hair-pulling.

    - COM lockup driving IE via COM I originally posted this under "Internet Explorer Web Development" but this forum seems like a more appropriate place for it. I have an application which uses JScript/CScript to drive IE via the InternetExplorer.Application ActiveX object. The script navigates to various URLs and simulates a user interacting with the web page. This has been working fine for a year or so, but recently I started getting reliability problems on specific web sites. The problem is that occasionally the embedded iexplore.exe process providing the out-of-process COM server for IE appears to fail in the middle of a call. The embedded iexplore.exe process goes to 100% CPU, the script doesn't return from the COM call until I kill the script. All subsequent attempts to access IE via COM from other scripts also hang. The problem persists until I manually kill the iexplore.exe process. In all the cases that I've seen, the problem has occured in a delay loop which is polling the .Busy property at 100ms intervals waiting for it to go false. The problem seems to occur at random, but it seems that I can sometimes provoke it by opening and closing the property window for the command tool that the cscript process is running in. I wonder if this may have something to do with the script engine input/output streams clashing with network I/O streams. Anyone else seen a problem like this, or got any idea how to resolve it Tag: Internet Explorer Extension Development programmatic access to Office Reference Internet Explorer Development

    - Get Position of an HTML Element Hi, I am a total newbie to Visual Studio. So, please forgive me if the question is trivial or does not fit for this forum. I have to write a program in Visual C++ (or some other better suited language) which takes an HTML page as input and outputs the position (X,Y coordinate relative to top of the page) of any given html element (e.g. <BODY> element). From some research, I was able to fit in some pieces of the puzle 1. Load an HTML page and get the document interface IHTMLDocument2 (used to get information on a html document). 2. The element interface IHTMLElement2 for an element (e.g. body) can be obtained from IHTMLDocument2. The IHTMLElement2 interface has clientLeft and clientTop functions which gives the position of the corresponding html element. So, I guess the chain of steps would be to first read an HTML page and get the document interface IHTMLDocument2. From that get the IHTMLElement2 interface and then use the functions clientLeft and clientTop to get the position of the element. Any help (maybe even a simple code snippet) on how to proceed with the above problem will be is appreciated.

    - Calling ActiveX function from Javascript Hi, From what I've heard, you're supposed to be able to call an embedded activex function or set one of its properties from the javascript in an html/asp page as long as the function or property is declared as public in the code. I have an activex control embedded in an html page with the object tag: <object ID="gis" classid="clsid:C9905EA4-468A-46c0-BCF4-49A547B3A2E6"> Then I try to call a public function of the control like this: <script> function showbox() { gis.ShowMBox(); } <script> All the function does is show a messagebox. I have an html button that calls the javascript function like this: <input type=button value="SetDoc" onclick="showbox()"> When I click the button which calls the javascript function, which in turn calls the activex function, I get a page error icon in the status bar, and when I double click it here's the error message I see: Line: 12 Char: 2 Error: Object doesn't support this property or method. Code: 0 What's wrong with what I'm trying to do. Has anyone tried to do this and succeeded Thanks Tag: Internet Explorer Extension Development programmatic access to Office Reference Internet Explorer Development

    - Bookmark ignored calling iexplore.exe 7 We have also had the problem with file://c:/somedir/helpfile.htm#101 working in IE 6 and FF but not IE7 this has rendered hundereds of help pages for our product unreachable by users upgrading to IE7. We support cross platform systems, so have to execute the users preferred browser ( an option set by the user) and then acommnd line call to the os such as; "location of user's browser" "file://location and bookmark" protocol. A standard html bookmark is nothing unusual in a URL so we were supprised that support for this facility has been dropped between IE6 and 7.

    - javascript - rubberband box Hi All... I'm trying to implement a stretchable rubberband box over an image - in order to allow a user crop the image. I've attached functions for onmousedown, onmouseup, and onmousemove. When the mouse is pushed down I enable a span with a dotted line border. Then when the button is held down and the mouse moved, I adjust the size of the span in order to make its border track the mouse. The problem though is when the mouse is pressed down, held, and moved, the cursor changes to a circle with a slash through it - as though some drag/drop attempt is invalid. What's going on here Why is the browser giving me that cursor and how can I make it not do that Thanks for the help!! -- Curt Tag: Internet Explorer Extension Development programmatic access to Office Reference Internet Explorer Development

    - How to navigate url with BHO? Hi, I programmed test program that navigate url with "Navigate()" method of BHO (Browser Helper Object). And, I saw the url page successfully. But, some page is wrong. In example, "sign in" page in this site: - Some frames in the page have scroll bar. - Login procedure is failed. (Without my BHO code, the original page has no scroll bar, and login procedure is good.) My test code is very simple as follows: This method "OnBeforeNavigate2()" is called when the event " DISPID_BEFORENAVIGATE2 " is received in the method "Invoke()" . ======= start of code ======= BOOL CSWATHelper:: OnBeforeNavigate2 (DISPID dispid, REFIID riid, LCID lcid, WORD flags, DISPPARAMS *params, VARIANT *result, EXCEPINFO *excep, UINT *argerr) { USES_CONVERSION; HRESULT hr = S_FALSE; CComPtr<IWebBrowser2> spBrowser; CComPtr<IDispatch> spDisp = ((*params).rgvarg)[ 6 ].pdispVal; hr = spDisp->QueryInterface(IID_IWebBrowser2,(void**)&spBrowser); if (hr != S_OK) { return TRUE; } // Variable "bSentAlrady" is flag to prevent infinite loop. // If it is "TRUE", then this event is caused from the below "spBrowser->Navigate()" method. // So, in this time, just return. if (bSentAlready != FALSE) { bSentAlready = FALSE; return TRUE; } // Stop navigate. spBrowser->Stop(); // Set the flag to "TRUE" for preventing infinite loop. bSentAlready = TRUE; // navigate to original url (for just test). spBrowser->Navigate((*params).rgvarg[ 5 ].pvarVal->bstrVal, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL); return FALSE; } ======= end of code ======== The above method is called when the event " DISPID_BEFORENAVIGATE2 " is received . And, it is just navigate to original url. It looks like very simple. What' the matter What should I do I spent several months on the above problem. I really appreciate any one advice me.

    - The future of IE extension API / Framework Hi, Not necessarily so, but generally yes. You could have a separate process looking for the creation of new IE windows on a timer, hooking in and altering the dom in the beforenavigatecomplete, but this is an ugly application, which would degrade the performance of the browser. There are some user settings that effect page rendering and ActiveXCompatibility flags can block Flash and other unwanted objects. Regards.

It is now acknowledged as a social, cultural and economic phenomenon. web development Raleigh firms have realized that the Internet and the Web have broken down economic, social and political barriers and revolutionized conventional business models. Many businesses have realized the importance of having a Web presence and those who do not, risk being left behind. web development Raleigh Raleigh firms cater to companies trying to reach customers in different locations or who have products that can be shipped to customers far away obviously need to have an online presence.

This might be better directed at an Office group, but I'd like to know if it's possible to programmatically access the Office Research Explorer bar from IE.

Re: Internet Explorer Extension Development programmatic access to Office Reference

IECUSTOMIZER

Hi,

Find the CLSID of the Reference Explorer Bar in your registry under HKCR\CLSID (I don't have it installed so I don't know its CLSID value) from there find the name of the COM server .dll. You can load that file in your Object Browser of your IDE and view its public methods that you will be able to call programatically.(It may not have any public methods that you can call).

Also look under HKCU or HKLM \Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\{CLSID of Research bar} . Usually explorer bars store their settings under this key.

If you just want to toggle the Explorer bar use the showbrowserbar method.

Regards.

Re: Internet Explorer Extension Development programmatic access to Office Reference

Thanks. I'll have to give this a whirl. Looks like no changes were made to the reference bar in office 2007.

Re: Internet Explorer Extension Development programmatic access to Office Reference

ChristoP

I did find what I think I was looking for, a dll named refiebar.dll in the Microsoft Office/Office11 folder. It was referenced in the registry under CLSID {FF059E31-CC5A-4E2E-BF3B-96E929D65503}. Unfortunately, though, when I try to open the file in OLEView by binding or view typelib, I get an error. From Bind To File, I get MK_E_INVALIDEXTENSION, and from View Typelib I get TYPE_E_CANNOTLOADLIBRARY. I did a dumpbin /exports on it, and it has COM style entry points (DllRegisterServer, DllGetClassObject, ...).

Re: Internet Explorer Extension Development programmatic access to Office Reference

Just guessing, but did you try disabling the reference bar in the IE add-ons Perhaps IE is blocking access to it from other apps
