Hello all.

At first I know the basics of C++ but only on console applications. Now I'm trying to make form application with WebBrowser.

I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008.
Here is my problem:

I create new project (windows forms application) and on design tab I add WebBrowser and Button. Now I know that if I double click on button it will take me on to the Form1.h and if I want to navigate WebBrowser I just type
this->webbrowser1->Navigate("www.google.com"); ..... and it works.

But what about if I want to navigate webbrowser from the main function or from other function? Whatever I do it says that webbrowser1 is not declared. So how can I declare this webbrowser1 in main function?

And where the main code of this forms application should be? In form1.h ???


Thanks for any help you can give.

This probably belongs in the Managed C++ forum :)

Yes, you should be editing that in Form1.h. Just Double click on button "Go" or anything that you want.

Then you should see something like Private: Void Button1_Click(........){
//You can add your code here.
//whenever you click on Button1, this code is executed.
//so if you have textBox1 for putting address, you can do something like this
this->webBrowser1->Navigate(textBox1->text);
//i think it should work.
}

also, you shouldn't touch anything in Main.cpp, because it basically just calls Form1, so you can do what you want in Form1
