handling script errors using vb web browser

state · March 30th, 2005, 04:12 PM

hi, i have just made a small web browser in vb and have a button that sets focus on the web browser (WebBrowser1.SetFocus) then access a buttons short cut. i am using (SendKeys "%s", True) the problem is that this web site has script errors on the page. if i was using internet explorer the status bar would handle it with no annoying popup msg. but in my vb browser the script error popup comes up. is there a way for vb to ignore this msg(as the sendkeys is in a loop)

Code:

For i = 1 To Val(txtCount.Text) 'use the Val() function to return the numeric value of a textbox
  SendKeys "%s", True
  'SendKeys "{ENTER}", True 'Enter Script Error
 Next i

and if im reciving this error msg after every sendkeys it defeats the point of the loop. any help would be great thanks :D

Did you try to catch the error with On Error Goto or Resume Next?

I'm having the same problem with the webbrowser control. There is a javascript error on the website I am working with. It brings up a Script Error asking if you would like to continue running scripts on this page which i have to click yes or no to continue.
The error is that a javascript variable is undefined.

Also i am using form posting on the same site using PowerTCP's Web Tool which cannot post to the site because of the javascript error. However when using the form posting method, the error message isn't displayed. The information simply isn't posted.

Does anybody have a way to bypass these problems?
