Hi,

I think Einar's right. The WebBrowser control derives from WebBrowserBase which is bascially a wrapper for the ActiveX control.

>ActiveX control? Are you not using the new System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser control? You should be. It's not ActiveX.

>>Viv,
>>Thanks for testing. I also created a new test form and now I can get the form's keyobard events to fire, but only after I mouse click the webbrowser control on the form. After I click a keyboard button and the keyboard even fire I have to mouse click the webbrowser control again. Is that the behaviour you saw?

>>I tried to access the keyboard events for the WebBrowser control in code (not through the property window) and exceptions were thrown left and right, but I noticed that the WebBrowser control is an ActiveX control, and that might be the reason for my troubles.

>>UPDATE: If I display something in the webbrowser control using the Url property (this.webBrowser1.Url = new Uri(@"c:\einar\1024x768.pdf");) the keyboard events don't fire even after mouse clicking the webbrowser control.

>>>Hmm. WebBrowser control derives from Control and Control has a KeyPress event. Why do you say it WebBrowser doesn't have one? (Just looking at docs - haven't tried it.....)
>>>
>>>UPDATE: Just tried a WebBrowser on a form with KeyPreview true. Form got the KeyPress event just fine. OTOH, you seem to be right - the WebBrowser control doesn't expose the KeyPress event (at least not in the properties window)....
