Thanks for the reply!
The first step I'm trying to do is read the Postdata parameter that is passed to the beforenavigate2 event. I'm not passing the data programmatically. It should be populated when a user fills out a POST form and submits it in the webbrowser control. I have managed to locate code in VB that would do what I want but I can't come up with VFP equivelent code.
Private Sub ctrlWB_BeforeNavigate2(ByVal pDisp As Object, URL As
Variant, Flags As Variant, TargetFrameName As Variant, PostData As
Variant, Headers As Variant, Cancel As Boolean)
If pDisp Is ctrlWB.object Then
Dim lCount As Long
Dim lLen As Long
Dim strPostData As String
lLen = LenB(PostData) ' Use LenB to get the byte count
If lLen > 0 Then ' If it's a post form, lLen will be > 0
For lCount = 1 To lLen
strPostData = strPostData & Chr(AscB(MidB(PostData,
lCount, 1))) ' Use MidB to get 1 byte at a time
Next
MsgBox strPostData
End If
End If
End Sub
The 2nd step will be to retrieve this postdata (most likely stored in a vfp field) and send it to a method to automate future form submissions.
Basically we have a team of engineers that spend a large amount of time each day logging onto dozens of manufacture web sites, submitting search forms, copying text descriptions, links, and saving pictures using save as. Then they end up doing a whole lot more work after this to create design documents that end up being Excel documents with no structure. I want to record their actions to get them to the correct pages automatically then allow them to click on images and select text and use my VFP app to create structured design documents. It's an attempt to streamline workflow and give structure to the process.
Thanks very much for your help!
