• Windows Forms Click on a link programmatically using WebBrowser control

  How can I click on a link using C# and DOM The page is loaded within my WebBrowser control. Thanks The following code will "nearly click" on the first link on the document loaded in your web browser control. The "clicking" is simulated using the enter key which, when a link is focused, performs exactly as clicking it! only the concept is shown here. Now, you didn't clarify which link you wanted to click, but you can easily change the code. Just obtain the appropriate link element in the "ele" reference and use the same code. For example, you might iterate through the collection of all links in the document "es" and search for your own link. The Code: HtmlElementCollection es = webBro ...Show All

• .NET Development Searching for a file in multiple paths

  Anyone know if there is a builtin method or something in, say, System.IO that allows one to find a file given a path list Something like: System.IO.File file = System.IO.Path.FindFile("myFile.txt","c:\;c:\temp;d:\files\myfiles\etc;"); This would return a file or file name. OK, I went ahead and wrote it myself. It's a pretty simple piece of code. The first method takes a "normal" semi-colon delimited path string, while the second method takes a list of paths to search. Both methods return a FileInfo object. The second method checks if the file name is null because my application could pass it a null file name. Feel free to remove it.
