how to post a form data using WebBrowser.Navigate? (VB 2005)

  thanks, but that's not exactly what i'm looking for

  your example uses the webbrowser class that came with older frameworks. i'm trying to use the webbrowser control that comes with VS2005. There is no [Navigate2] method & [Navigate] has somewhat different signature.

  (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms161355.aspx)

  the sample that i posted above is my translation of the following C# code:

  i also tried different "postdata" encodings:

  Dim urlString As String = "abc.aspx"
  Dim targetFrameName As String = Nothing
  Dim additionalHeaders As String = "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" + Chr(10) + Chr(13)
  Dim PostData As Byte()= System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes("A=3")
  WebBrowser1.Navigate(urlString, targetFrameName, PostData, additionalHeaders)

  and

  Dim urlString As String = "abc.aspx"
  Dim targetFrameName As String = Nothing
  Dim additionalHeaders As String = "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" + Chr(10) + Chr(13)
  Dim ENCODER As System.Text.Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8
  Dim PostData As Byte() = ENCODER.GetBytes("A=3")
  WebBrowser1.Navigate(urlString, targetFrameName, PostData, additionalHeaders)

  but nothing seems to work

  Here's a great KB article on how to do just that. It's in C# so if any of the code looks funny post it here and we'll translate it.
