Q: 

Tracking actions in a browser component

Hi Guys,

Im a c# developer and I believe that what I want to achieve is going to move out of the realms of some drop in .NET component so I am looking for advise on what I use externally which .NET can inter op with.

My requirements are to have an embedded web browser control in a WPF/Winforms applciation BUT I will also need to keep track of the following:

  1. User interaction i.e. what pages they visit, forms submitted where they click etc.
  2. DOM manipulation and traversing

I am guessing here but it seems that I might need to start looking at open source html/web browsers out there like WebKit etc. Is this the right track or is there anything currently available in the form of a control/COM object that I can use directly.

Cheers, Chris.

You should be able to accomplish point 1 using the webbrowser control in Visual Studio, but I dont think DOM manipulation is available, i do know you can traverse all the tags. reference

I'd need both, for example Id want an event to be fired when I'm hovering over an image that in turn surrounds that image with a big red border.
