My opinion is quite simple.

Certain services on the internet are easy to use.
Yahoo buys them.
They become difficult.

Yahoo's biggest problem is that they make it too complicated for new people
to sign up for services.  It took me ages to work out the new interface for
webring.com after Yahoo bought it.

I believe Yahoo is trying to become the Internet version of Microsoft (buy
everything, own everything).

I certainly wont post code snippets in future.

DIBComponents, FastStrings, Audio Compression components.
Best of all, they are all open-source.

If the contents of the frames are from a different domain, then you won't be
able to access them. It's a security "feature".

If someone is not aware or unsure that they are asking an off-topic
question, then I ask them nicely to look elsewhere. But, when someone
deliberately ignores the guidelines for this group, then, IMO, they have
very little respect for this group and its members and I'm less inclined to
treat that kindly.

Check the Polls section of the site. Almost a year ago, over 70% of
respondents voted for the group to continue to be moderated for WebBrowser
related questions only.

Another example, on the 29th, I posted a message about NOT sending
"unsubscribe" messages to the entire group. Yet, the very next day, someone
did.

And now... we have 4 off-topic messages in an off-topic thread.

Hello,

This is just an idea, but why don't you create one thread

Subject: [delphi-webbrowser] APP and Threads


Hello everybody.

I'm surprised very few people have thread problems with asynchronous
pluggable protocols. Here is what I have understood (I have just
discovered APP), please tell me if I am wrong somewhere.
When a page has pictures or other elements that must be downloaded,
webbrowser creates some threads that call yourt Start method first.
In this Start method, if you need to access some global variables,
you need to use CriticalSections. If you need to access the VCL, you
have to SendMessage to the main thread (same as Synchronize).
Am I right ?
Now I have a problem... On some very simple pages, (perhaps they have
often the same pictures ?), my app enters an infinite loop; 5 or 6
threads are active, but I'm not in any accessible source code. If I
try to debug step by step, the problem doesn't occur, so perhaps it's
a thread problem ?
I have read somewhere that I had to implement a message pump in my
thread, but I don't know how to do that.
My source is derived from the AppVcl, I have tried with
Switch/Continue (what is it's goal), and without.
Oh, something important : many of the img src asked are missing, so I
use Abort(0,0) to tell WebBrowser they are missing.

I use IE4.01 under NT, Delphi 5.

Note : is the AppVCL project dead ? If not, where can I send my
comments/suggestions ?
Re-note : The problem occurs with EmbeddedWB and WebBrowser.

Serge.

Is there a way to use the WebBrowser in a UI-Less application?

No. WebBrowser has to be visible to work.

You can use WinInet or http components (Indy or ICS) to get the documents
and look at Per's UI-Less Parser for some help in processing documents.

If the form is not visible, then the WebBrowser is not visible, and
therefore the document won't load. WebBrowser must be visible, not just have
its Visible property set to true.

WebBrowser will NOT load the document if it is not visible. That's just the
way it is. I guess the developers at MS never thought that someone would
want to use a browser and not display it.

You can hide it behind a TPanel or something, but it and its parent have to
be visible (but not necessarily to the user).

I'm very surprised to hear that. I've never heard of anyone being able to

Hello,
I am using the hint from H.Fournier's FAQ on how to  load a string into the
WebBrowser without Navigating to a file.
var
   v: Variant;
   HTMLDocument: IHTMLDocument2;
begin
   HTMLDocument := WebBrowser1.Document as IHTMLDocument2;
   v := VarArrayCreate([0, 0], varVariant);
   v[0] := HTMLString; // Here's your HTML string
   HTMLDocument.Write(PSafeArray(TVarData(v).VArray));
   HTMLDocument.Close;
end;

When I run it I get access violation in line :
HTMLDocument.Write(PSafeArray(TVarData(v).VArray));
Does anyone know why?
I would appreciate any help .
Karol

I had a similar question for this list a few months back, Kelly Salvage
responded:

************************************************************
I also make quite extensive use of the webbrowser for reporting
purposes.
What I have found to be the most simple and effective way of doing
this, is
to navigate to about:blank on the onshow event of the form to
initialise the
document, then use the webbrowser.oleobject.document.write method
to write
to the document, and the webbrowser.oleobject.document.clear
method to clear
the current html.

Regards
Kelly

Hope this helps, got me going...

Hello,

I am trying to capture a web page to a bitmap, and have tried the
examples that are posted in this forum and on Henri's FAQ's, however
I am only getting the portion of the screen that is visible, if the
document is to large for the window and there are scroll bars then I
get the scroll bars in the image.

Thanks for any help,
Duffy

Here is the code that I am using:

Procedure CopyImagetoClipboard;
var
   ViewObject: IViewObject;
   sourceDrawRect: TRect;
   image1:timage;
begin
   image1:=timage.create(nil);
   try
     ie.Document.QueryInterface(IViewObject, ViewObject);
     image1.picture.bitmap.width := ie.width;
     image1.picture.bitmap.height := ie.height;
     image1.height := ie.height;
     image1.width := ie.width;
     if ViewObject <> nil then
     begin
       try
         sourceDrawRect := Rect(0, 0, ie.Height, ie.Width);
         ViewObject.Draw(DVASPECT_CONTENT, 1, nil, nil, ie.HWND,
           image1.Canvas.Handle, @sourceDrawRect, nil, nil, 0);
       finally
         ViewObject._Release;
       try
         clipboard.assign(image1.picture.bitmap);
       finally
       end;
       image1.picture.SaveToFile('C:\junk.bmp');
       image1.free;
       end;
     end;
   except
   end;

end;
