I've a JavaScript file and it contains some methods. I want to call those methods from my winform application. Is it possible? If so can you give me a simple example?
I've tried like this
Process.Start("javascript:showuser('User1');return false;");
But it is not recogniging the showuser method. Because my js file is in remote location (ex : http://mysite.com/userprofile.js)
Can you help me to do this
Thank you
You could use a WebBrowser control. Here's a sample post.
webBrowser1.DocumentText =
@"<html><head>
<script type='text/javascript'>
function testFunction() {
alert('test');
}
</script>
</head><body></body></html>";
webBrowser1.Document.InvokeScript("testFunction");
src attribute: <script type='text/javascript' src='http://mysite.com/userprofile.js'></script>
You could possibly use a reference to Microsoft.JScript.dll, and something like the Evaluator method from here; but what exactly are you trying to do? If you are wanting to script your winform, I would be tempted to use IronPython. If you want to automate a browser, you might use the WebBrowser control.
for being able to expose COM objects you must set:
[ComVisible(true)]
outside your class (within your namespace)
something like:
namespace webform
{
[ComVisible(true)]
public partial class frmMain : Form
{
public frmMain()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
}
}
