Question

[mlbeers]

Hello everyone im starting up programming again and was thinking of writing a program that will open up a web browser and type in anything. Such as when i run the program it will open Yahoo and in the search bar type in Hello and click enter without me having to personally type it in. Anyone have any idea of how to begin writing this?

which platform you are working on?

you need to use some GUI library for this and can use a web browser control in your application to open sites.

Then you don't need anything. Just use Win32 api (COM for WB)

[writetonsharma]

yes use win32, there are web browser controls, create a dialog, put the web browser control there. thats all you want.

search msdn for web browser contorl.

www.msdn.microsoft.com
