C# WebBrowser控制页面返回Windows.Form function

Question

I am writing a program that sends data from a windows application to a website. In the windows form, I am using the WebBrowser control to connect to the website and login. After I login I would like to be able to have a button that when the user clicks on it, it will call a function back in the windows.form so it can send the data to the website in the background. I can't figure out a way to do this, is this actually possible? Any help will be much appreciated thanks.

Answer 1

The mechanism that immediately comes to mind is a shared file. Your WinForms application would setup a FileSystemWatcher on a shared directory. Then the ASPX page would update the file so that your WinForm would know to upload the data.

I do not recommend this method, believing that a WindowsService that was notified via the ASPX page would be preferable, however the above should be a workaround if your are unduly constrained to the architecture you described.
