  I will have a web browser in my app and I want it to enter text into a textbox on the page, how would I do this, I am just making an app to restart my router.

  This can be done. you need to try and get the element by ID, the textbox, then once found, set its text on the documentCompleted event.

  Example...

  private sub webbrowser_documentcompleted(byval sender as object, byval e as WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) handled webbrowser.documentcompleted

  Dim theElement as HtmlElement = Me.webbrowser.Document.GetElementById("ControlName")

  if theElement is nothing = false then

  'we found the element. set the inner text

  theElement.InnerText = "my text"

  end if

  end sub

  does this help
