Thread: WebBrowsers, Dialogs, Kicking your computer...

Hey evrbdy. Merry Xmas from Jinx

I was looking for a bit of info that someone could he me out with. I'm building a small web browser with MSVC++ and have an event were a dialog (IDD_WWWDialogDlg) pops up and you enter a web address to goto. I've tried several different combos to try to get the DDX to work out and ended in sorrow when I kicked my computer, knocking it over, feeling somwhat better about it though. This is the basics of what I used:

Code:

void CJinxBrowserView::OnWwwDialog()
{
   CWWWDialogDlg dlg(this);
   dlg.DoModal();
   if(IDOK //*<- OK button in the WwwDialog*// == TRUE)
   { 
      GetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT_URL, m_strWwwUrl);  
      Navigate2(_T(m_strWwwUrl)NULL,NULL);
   }
}

Can some on spare a little help? Please?

Hmmm.... Something went awry...I got an error. I used your code zMan but something is not quite right.

The part:

Code:

Navigate2(_T(dlg.m_strSomeString)NULL,NULL

(Note: the m_strSomeString is really something else.)
Returns an error, you compile it and see whate happens, will you?

Navigate2(_T(dlg.m_strSomeString)NULL,NULL);


Hm....maybe?

Navigate2(_T(dlg.m_strSomeString),NULL,NULL);


I don't know what the function does... but common syntax dictates that there has to be a comma there. You can drop the _T() macro. You are passing a CString anyway, it's Unicode.

Navigate2( dlg.m_strSomeString,NULL,NULL);
