Question Hi.
I am using VB.NET 2003. My application will request up to 2 - 40 records from a database by using a modified URL. The code below, when part of a loop works perfectly.
Here is the problem. I use a "tabbed browser" called Maxthon. As I said, the code below works perfectly, but it continually writes over the last tab in Maxthon. I want to write to a new tab every time.
Maxthon is a shell for internet explorer. I suspect, that if the code below created seperate instance of Internet explorer, the all would be fine.
I am using VB.Net 2003.
Thank you

Imports System.Threading
Private Sub LoadWebpage_and_Wait(ByVal TheURL As String)
wb.Navigate(TheURL)
ShowWindow(wb.HWND(), SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)
wb.Visible = True
While wb.ReadyState < SHDocVw.tagREADYSTATE.READYSTATE_COMPLETE
Thread.Sleep(100)
End While
End Sub
Answer I havent worked with Maxthon before, But I think there should be a tabs collection to create a new tab and then u can use that tabs or windows object to navigate. Alternatively you might still use the similar window creation method it might ask for a new paratemeter whether the new window should be tabbed or stand alone.
