Finally Got .NET working :)

Re: Finally Got .NET working :)
I take it you mean Visual Basic .Net and you know Visual Basic 6.0? I was learning the new Visual Basic EE 2005 edition just by playing with it and Googling whatever I had to to get what I wanted accomplished.
I got far enough with a training book to make a working web browser with my own graphics, but I didn't like the idea of my web browser using Microsoft's standards for networking. There is a reason I am a Firefox user (people more often target Microsoft products for hacks and viruses).
So yeah, I just Googled as I needed for specific instructions on how to do things. I know that doesn't help much, but it worked for me(over the course of many hours smashing my head against the desk yelling at the monitor ).

Re: Finally Got .NET working :)
Yeah, I think I still have the files lying around somewhere... I called it Evolution but it turns out that is a Linux program . Anyhow, yeah got the forward, back , home and url bars to work. The url did not remember the history in a drop down box though, that I hadn't tackled. But yeah, I got it decently along considering I was a VB EE2005 new comer. I never could get the progress bar to work right though. I think that sums up the feature list, but its actually really simple to code.
I have found there is a certain nack that I use when Googling but I can't describe it well. I can usually find results that can help me. I mainly use keywords though. Like if you want to learn how to use a textbox for input and extract text from it I would Google: VB copy textbox text or VB get textbox text. Actually for that it would be:
And why make your own web browser? I wanted to so I could have all the features I wanted, but since I have settled for less.
I guess I could upload it for you if you want to look at it. I know it wont ever get past the stage its in now .

Cool. However, I will stress that if you do re-release it the name must be changed because of software copyright.Agentarrow wrote:That's where I come in, If I get any cool features I'll re-Upload it. My dad's been using Visual Basic for 11 years now

Re: Finally Got .NET working :)
Im a little too busy this week to look for my old files and upload them, but I will get them here sooner or later. I don't have them on demand because since I worked on it I built my own computer so I didn't transfer all of my files to it and blah blah blah... I think you get my point . Anyhow, yeah, so soon I will get them for you, so long as I still have them! I might have deleted them along the way somewhere because I was "done" with the program as far as I was concerned.

Basically, browsers built in vb are just tapping into the IE in your windows, but I loved it when I made my first one. : - )
