I am developing a windows application with a WebBrowser control that navigates to a sharepoint site.
My problem is that i am getting JavaScript error.
How can i disable the JavaScript error? I don't want them to pop up.
This question is related to
c#
.net
winforms
webbrowser-control
This disables the script errors and also disables other windows.. such as the NTLM login window or the client certificate accept window. The below will suppress only javascript errors.
// Hides script errors without hiding other dialog boxes.
private void SuppressScriptErrorsOnly(WebBrowser browser)
{
// Ensure that ScriptErrorsSuppressed is set to false.
browser.ScriptErrorsSuppressed = false;
// Handle DocumentCompleted to gain access to the Document object.
browser.DocumentCompleted +=
new WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventHandler(
browser_DocumentCompleted);
}
private void browser_DocumentCompleted(object sender,
WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e)
{
((WebBrowser)sender).Document.Window.Error +=
new HtmlElementErrorEventHandler(Window_Error);
}
private void Window_Error(object sender,
HtmlElementErrorEventArgs e)
{
// Ignore the error and suppress the error dialog box.
e.Handled = true;
}
None of the above solutions were suitable for my scenario, handling .Navigated and .FileDownload events seemed like a good fit but accessing the WebBrowser.Document property threw an UnauthorizedAccessException which is caused by cross frame scripting security (our web content contains frames - all on the same domain/address but frames have their own security holes that are being blocked).
The solution that worked was to override IOleCommandTarget and to catch the script error commands at that level. Here's the WebBrowser sub-class to achieve this:
/// <summary>
/// Subclassed WebBrowser that suppresses error pop-ups.
///
/// Notes.
/// ScriptErrorsSuppressed property is not used because this actually suppresses *all* pop-ups.

Here is an alternative solution:
class extendedWebBrowser : WebBrowser
{
/// <summary>
/// Default constructor which will make the browser to ignore all errors
/// </summary>
public extendedWebBrowser()
{
this.ScriptErrorsSuppressed = true;
FieldInfo field = typeof(WebBrowser).GetField("_axIWebBrowser2", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (field != null)
{
object axIWebBrowser2 = field.GetValue(this);
axIWebBrowser2.GetType().InvokeMember("Silent", BindingFlags.SetProperty, null, axIWebBrowser2, new object[] { true });
}
}
}
axwebbrowser1.Silent = true;
I just found this :
private static bool TrySetSuppressScriptErrors(WebBrowser webBrowser, bool value)
{
FieldInfo field = typeof(WebBrowser).GetField("_axIWebBrowser2", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (field != null)
{
object axIWebBrowser2 = field.GetValue(webBrowser);
if (axIWebBrowser2 != null)
{
axIWebBrowser2.GetType().InvokeMember("Silent", BindingFlags.SetProperty, null, axIWebBrowser2, new object[] { value });
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
usage example to set webBrowser to silent : TrySetSuppressScriptErrors(webBrowser,true)
