HtmlWindowCollection Class
Represents the windows contained within another HtmlWindow.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
An HTML document may consist of a FRAMESET that defines multiple fixed FRAME objects, each of which contains its own HTML page. Alternatively, a document may contain a number of IFRAME objects, which can position documents arbitrarily inside of other documents. FRAME objects and IFRAME objects are represented at their top-most level by an HtmlWindowCollection, which contains elements of type HtmlWindow.
HtmlWindowCollection supports the IEnumerator interface so that it can be used in loop constructs. It also defines an Item method, which allows access to the elements of the collection either via a method call or using standard array syntax.
If you create new windows with the Open or OpenNew methods, and the documents hosted by these windows contain FRAME or IFRAME elements, that these elements will appear in the HtmlWindowCollection of the parent page.
For more information on frames, see the documentation for the Frames property.
The following code example inspects each document within a page containing frames and creates a table of all of the outgoing hyperlinks from each page for future inspection.
Dim LinksTable As Hashtable Private Sub GetLinksFromFrames() LinksTable = New Hashtable() Dim FrameUrl As String If (WebBrowser1.Document IsNot Nothing) Then With WebBrowser1.Document Dim CurrentWindow As HtmlWindow = .Window If (CurrentWindow.Frames.Count > 0) Then For Each Frame As HtmlWindow In CurrentWindow.Frames FrameUrl = Frame.Url.ToString() Dim FrameLinksHash As New Hashtable() LinksTable.Add(FrameUrl, FrameLinksHash) For Each HrefElement As HtmlElement In Frame.Document.Links FrameLinksHash.Add(HrefElement.GetAttribute("HREF"), "Url") Next Next Else Dim DocLinksHash As New Hashtable() LinksTable.Add(.Url.ToString(), DocLinksHash) For Each HrefElement As HtmlElement In .Links DocLinksHash.Add(HrefElement.GetAttribute("HREF"), "Url") Next End If End With End If End Sub
