C# How to make webbrowser clickable

Question

I was wonder how can I fire an event when the user double click on my webbrowser component. Since it has no such event how it could be possible...

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Sounds like a WPF matter :-) There you would go with an Behaviour attached to the browser. See this link for more information about this approach if you can alter your application (dependends on what you have done yet).

If you can't apply this solution, just bind a event handler to the click event and count click per time with respect to the mouse movement since the last click and if both conditions are true (two clicks in 0.2 secs, mouse hasn't moved more than 2px, for example) execute your double click code. The events you should use are previewMOUSEdown or MOUSEdown , not KEYdown .

Answer 2

// Call this where you want to create the event (let's say on the form load for example).
webBrowser1.DoubleClick += new EventHandler(webBrowser1_DoubleClick);

// This happens when the event is fired (so when you double click on the webbrowser control).
void webBrowser1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            // Code
        }

Try this.

I don't know why you can't set this event via the designer :(, but this should work.
