You could create your own web browser control; but you'd be in for an awful lot of work. For an idea of the amount of work take a look at the Mozzila project.
Why not just use the AxWebBrowser control? There's even an article on doing just that: Using the WebBrowser control in .NET

Just checking but...
Previously I would write COM components in VB, insert them into MTS and call those components from ASP. The purpose was to avoid putting lots of code into ASP pages not to mention other benefits.
My question is that if I wanted to do the same in .NET with C#, MTS, by compiling my C# into a dll and inserting it into MTS much the same way ( maybe putting a SOAP interface into my C#) Does this architecture still apply in .NET ? Am i on the right track ? I shouldn't have a problem with C# as I do know Java. I'm just trying to figure out if I'm on the right track or not at this point ..
I must say at this point I'm a bit overwhelmed by all that .NET has to offer. Can anyone recommend a book for exactly these types of applications ???
Thanks in advance..
Dato.

If you are using ASP.NET, the recommended way to structure your application is to let it use x-copy deployment (ie you should just be able to copy the files to a new server and it will work).
With that said there are a couple different options available.
Create a class library in C# that contains all of the code that would have been placed in MTS. Place this dll in the /bin directory of every application that needs it then it will be loaded when referenced by the ASP.NET pages.
Create a separate web application that exposes your class library from above as a web-service, then use the webservice from your ASP.NET pages.
I'm not sure but Professional ASP.NET programming might cover what you are looking for in both cases. A simple example of the first case is covered in the Beginning version of the book.

Hi
if i have a string "a sheep jumped over the moon" how would i extract the word 'jumped' without using a for loop?
I have herd that regular expressions would be able to do this. Would this also return the index of where the first character is also ?
anyone?
cheers

Yes regular expressions (regex) will do that.
My regex is very bad so I'll not attempt to show that but the form would be something like.
Regex re = new Regex(myRegExpression);
Match match = re.Match(myStringToSearch);
System.Console.WriteLine("Match found at: " + match.Index);I think the RegExpression would be (.)*jumped(.)*, but as I said I'm not very good with them

Just to clarfiy, you want to do a basic string search, which does not need RegEx. The point of a regular expression is that you can use wildcards, for example sh*p would find sheep, shlap any other combination that has an sh followed by any number of chars follwed by p. * would find anything and *.bmp would find all .bmp files. I don't remember any of the other wildcards off the top of my head  )

Does anyone know how to update the screen in C#? For instance, I have a statusbar at the bottom of my form that contains the time inside a panel, how can I force the screen to update and show the current time always? I don't have to use a timer do I? Thanks in advance.

It appears that a timer will have to be used in that case 
If you want to draw on a Control just call CreateGraphics() on it, but make sure you call Dispose() on it when you are done.

This may sound like a stupid question but I have always wonder what kind of draw on memory is taken when a timer is constantly used. I am just thinking of times when you are possibly going though a long algorithm while constantly having a timer being used to update the time on the screen. Am I just being ridiculous here or could this be a legitimate concern?

You shouldn't have to worry about it, the windows timer functionality was designed so it wouldn't bog the system down by itself. If an application has events waiting for it the timer event won't fire. When the system does get to fire the time it will only send one event, not the entire backlog.
If you have an excessively long task running it should be placed into a work thread so that the program doesn't appear to be locked up. In that case the main application thread is doing its own thing so it can keep up with event messages sent to it.

I'm having a very difficult time figuring out what should be a simple problem. I have a server application developed using C++ (on Linux, so it's not being ported to C# any time soon) that sends and receives standard structures over a socket. How can I read those structures, interpret them as attributes, and send a sensible reply? 
I've been experimenting with serializing classes with a binary formatter, accessing raw memory, and just creating a plain structure, but could find no way to send the bytes through the socket...
Thanks for your help,
Jason

When you serialize a class extra data is written to tell the runtime what type of object is being serialized.
I have no idea if MS put this functionality in but you can look to see if you can work something up between the StructLayout attribute (normally set to Sequential) and the MarshalAs attribute. Then try getting a byte[] array with that data.
I just thought of a hack that might work; create a struct, with the first and last elements being an int containing magic numbers; serialize the data to a MemoryStream, then retrieve the bytes from it, using only the data between your magic numbers to send across the wire. Like I said its a hack, and its entirely dependent on how the binary formatter serializes data (assuming it serializes the data in the same order it is in your struct).

How do you convert an image to an icon?
I've tried a couple of things, the latest being
statusBarPanel1.Icon = (Icon) (new ImageConverter.ConvertFrom(imageList1.Images[2]));
Anyone have any success with this? Thanks.

It appears that you can't 
I tried new IconConverter().ConvertFrom(myBitmap); and it throws a NotSupportedException with the text "IconConverter cannot convert from System.Drawing.Bitmap".

Thanks, James. I didn't get it to work that way, either, but I tried something else with better results.
I set the build property of each image I wanted to reference to 'Embedded Resource' rather than 'Content'. Then, I used the following routine to grab the icon from the assembly.
public static Icon GetIcon(string iconName)
{
Assembly assemb = Assembly.GetEntryAssembly();
return new Icon(assemb.GetManifestResourceStream("mynamespace.myfolder." + iconName));
}
Note that the case must be correct and the file extension and folder name must be included.

I'm trying to draw a simple ellipse over a bitmap, and the user can move this ellipse with the mouse. And of course, there seems to be a lot of flicker associated with it.
The previous solution was to use a memory based DC (MemDC). What does C# have to solve the flicker problem?
Thanks guys!!

well, although i like to store my data into xml style, i find the .net's SOAP serialization is too slow to accept.
To state my opinion i think it better to show you what i am doing. althouth i hate to take up too much space in codeproject.
i write a simple xml schema as example
a schema to describe a book ---- book.xsd
======================================================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- edited with XML Spy v4.2 U (http://www.xmlspy.com) by nova (RSGS) -->
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
<xs:element name="article">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="title" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="abstract" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="id" type="xs:ID" use="optional"/>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="book">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Comment describing your root element</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element ref="article" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
======================================================================
a implementation of schema ---- book.xml
======================================================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- edited with XML Spy v4.2 U (http://www.xmlspy.com) by nova (RSGS) -->
<book xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="D:\vcnet_proj\book.xsd">
<article>
<title>first</title>
<abstract>first article</abstract>
</article>
<article>
<title>second</title>
<abstract>second article</abstract>
</article>
</book>
======================================================================
Framework provide a tool call xsd.exe to get a class from schema, I take it make book.cs
======================================================================
using System.Xml.Serialization;
/// <remarks/>
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute(Namespace="", IsNullable=false)]
public class article {
/// <remarks/>
public string title;
/// <remarks/>
public string @abstract;
/// <remarks/>
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAttributeAttribute(Form=System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaForm.Unqualified, DataType="ID")]
public string id;
}
/// <remarks/>
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute("book", Namespace="", IsNullable=false)]
public class book {
/// <remarks/>
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("article")]
public article[] article;
}
========================================================================
Then make a simple demo to serailize the class ----usebook.cs
========================================================================
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Serialization;
public class Test
{
book mybook;
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
Test t = new Test();
DateTime time1,time2;
time1=DateTime.Now;
t.DeserializeObject(@"book.xml");
time2=DateTime.Now;
TimeSpan span;
span=time2-time1;
Console.WriteLine("Cost {0}",span);
t.Tell();
}
private void DeserializeObject(string filename)
{
Console.WriteLine("Reading with XmlReader");
// Create an instance of the XmlSerializer specifying type and namespace.
XmlSerializer serializer = new
XmlSerializer(typeof(book));
// A FileStream is needed to read the XML document.
FileStream fs = new FileStream(filename, FileMode.Open);
XmlReader reader = new XmlTextReader(fs);
// Use the Deserialize method to restore the object's state.
mybook = (book) serializer.Deserialize(reader);
}
private void Tell()
{
Console.WriteLine("Dump information");
for (int i=0; i<mybook.article.Length; i++)
Console.WriteLine("{0}",mybook.article[i].title);
}
}
========================================================================
Okay!!
I will show you the effience i meet in my P4 256M pc.
=============================
D:\vcnet_proj>usebook
Reading with XmlReader
Cost 00:00:00.5808352
Dump information
first
second
=============================
Do you think it acceptable? So simple a object cost it almost 1 second to process?
But i find it will not get the time longer when i paste the articles in book element to hundreds more.
What are the .net doing in this second?

Execute the read more than just one time to get the real amount of time it takes.

I know what you're thinking punk, you're thinking did he spell check this document? Well, to tell you the truth I kinda forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

I have tried it many time.
Only the first time cost much more almost 3 second. i think it will be caused by some dll or server be loaded or something like JIT in .net.
But in the sequent runs , it cost 0.56 second around.
maybe soap serializer must take so long to prepare for a procession.
I still not use it on somethink like webservice. In that situation 1 second is quite unacceptable i think.

Maybe you should write this up as an article. You could elaborate a bit more. I'm always interested in unique ideas like this, but you need to compare and contrast a bit more between the strengths and weaknesses of SOAP as opposed to your concept.

What you have is not SOAP, since SOAP is a specialized version of XML; but thats a minor detail.
What is happening is the .NET framework is creating a class at runtime to serialize the data. This is why after the first time you serialize the class there is a delay; it is creating and compiling code then caching it away.
If speed is that incredibly important search through the DOTNET mailing list archives and see if anyone had figured out how to keep that serializer class after the program has run. I remember some people working on it, they had gotten pretty far with it too. I do not remember when the discussion about it was, but I know it has been since early February.
Hope that gives you some idea what is going on 
Just out of curiosity do you see the speed problem with the SOAP formatter? IIRC the SOAP formatter just uses reflection to generate the packet rather than creating a class at runtime.
