Webbrowser

[Georg]

Hallo

why works this on the desktop and not at the device?

Sub App_Start
url = "http://www.vhs-brandenburg.de/googlemap.html?lat=52.4028&lon=12.5547"

Form1.Show
web.New1("Form1",0,22,240,223)

web.url = url 'either Navigate or assigning to Url will load the web page

End Sub

That link does not work on my desktop either. I know of no problems with the WebBrowser on the device.

Textbox1.Text = web.Url

That site needs JavaScript which I believe the WebBrowser control does not understand. I'm not sure about this but it might depend upon the OS you are using. I haven't found a definitive yes/no but your link does not work on my WM2003 device whereas other links do so it must be something to do with the contents of that page - JavaScript is the obvious one! (but then ...?)

Hi Georg,

agraham is correct, the Pocket IE does not support JavaScript that is required for panning Google maps.

As far as I'm aware, the only access point which allows selection of magnifications in the PIE is
52.4028,12.5547 - Google Maps

Else you can download static maps only.

If viewing Google maps is the only purpuse of your endeavor then I recommend the latest GoogleMaps.CAB for Windows Mobile.
