在C＃中，使用WebKitBrowser，如何获取HTML？

Question

I've been searching for answer for this all this morning and last night.

I use the WebKit.NET as an internal browser to mock the browser activity, and I followed the tutorial here .

So when creating the form, I declare:

this.webKitBrowser1.Navigated += new WebBrowserNavigatedEventHandler(webKitBrowser1_Navigated);

Where in the webKitBrowser1_Navigated event I try getting the document text using:

string content = webKitBrowser1.DocumentText;

But the content is empty .

Besides, I use webkitBrowser because I need the webkit engine to get the web-content.

Any idea on how can I get the text Content from WebKit Engine? Thanks.

Answer 1

The content of the document (via the DocumentText property) is available when the web kit engine has finished loading the document. Accessing the property beforehand will result in an empty DocumentText property.

You should use the DocumentCompleted event to wait for the document to be loaded.

The following code shows how to use the DocumentCompleted event:

webKitBrowser1.Navigate("www.google.com");
webKitBrowser1.DocumentCompleted += 
     new WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventHandler(webKitBrowser1_DocumentCompleted);

void webKitBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(object sender, WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e)
{
  string documentContent = webKitBrowser1.DocumentText;

  MessageBox.Show(documentContent);      
}
