Hey Guys ,
i have a Question i just maked a Webbrowser with the Webbrowser that is included with Visual Basic..
And i wonna have a New Custom Download Manager ,so when i click on any File that can be Downloadet then that Downloader opens and automaticilly downloads the File...
i saw the "FileDownload" Event from the WebBrowser but i really dont know how i could code this ..
Can someone help ?!

The easiest way would be to use the Navigating event in the webbrowser, then you can check to see if e.Url matches a format for a file that you would like use in your downloader. You can then set e.Cancel to True and download the file from your own code.

Very well done mandai, i wouldnt put better myself. After you do that all you need to do is make another form for downloading files and use a piece that finds the downloadable file. then puts it into a textbox, after that, it downloads the file that is set into the textbox.

I think you can use the FileDownload event better than the Navigating. Just put e.cancel=true and enter your downloader code to it. In my case I used FormDownload.Textbox1.Text = FormMain.WebBrowser1.URL I haven't tested it cuz I didn't have a file to download lol. But try to tweak it a bit if it doesn't works. And if you want to download the file using Navigating event, then maybe the code will be like this: If WebBrowser1.URL.EndsWith ".exe" Then I haven't tried that either and maybe there is an equation symbol between the code but I am not sure.

very much thanks guys...i will try

Please do and tell me how it worked cuz I haven't checked it myself.

Ok
ohh before i forgott i just Created a YouTube Video Downloader with that u can Download YouTube Videos in different Quality...its working with the new YouTube Code.I will upload it in next Days here ;)

I think you can use the FileDownload event

This isn't the same event that occurs when the file download dialog appears, also e is not a useful parameter in this event.
