I'm trying to set up a situation where outside of a form I can have form1.webbrowser1 start at www.google.com and navigate to www.yahoo.com where the URL before the navigate is www.google.com and after the navigate is www.yahoo.com.
This will navigate the webbrowser from another thread using this code on form1:
Why is is that, when I step through this, my navigating thread does not start when i testthread.start()?
Code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim testthread As New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf Form1.dowork)
site1 = "www.yahoo.com"
Debug.Print(Form1.WebBrowser1.Url.ToString)
'this shows www.google.com
testthread.Start()
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000)
'System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents()
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000)
Debug.Print(Form1.WebBrowser1.Url.ToString)
'this shows www.google.com
End SubCode:
Public Delegate Sub navigatecallback()
Public Sub navigate()
If Me.WebBrowser1.InvokeRequired Then
Me.WebBrowser1.Invoke(New navigatecallback(AddressOf navigate))
Else
Me.WebBrowser1.Navigate(site1)
End If
End Sub
Public Sub dowork()
navigate()
End SubWhy is is that, when I step through this, my navigating thread does not start when i testthread.start()?
