What you need to do is set the ObjectForScripting property on the web browser control to an object containing the C# methods you want to call from JavaScript. Then you can access that object from JavaScript using window.external. The only thing to watch out for is that the object has to have the [ComVisibleAttribute(true)] attribute. I've used this successfully for several years.
Here's a page with documenation and a simple example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/a0746166.aspx
Here's the example from the link (I haven't tried this code):
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Security.Permissions;
[PermissionSet(SecurityAction.Demand, Name="FullTrust")]
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public class Form1 : Form
{
private WebBrowser webBrowser1 = new WebBrowser();
private Button button1 = new Button();
[STAThread]
public static void Main()
{
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.Run(new Form1());
}
public Form1()
{
button1.Text = "call script code from client code";
button1.Dock = DockStyle.Top;
button1.Click += new EventHandler(button1_Click);
webBrowser1.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
Controls.Add(webBrowser1);
Controls.Add(button1);
Load += new EventHandler(Form1_Load);
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
webBrowser1.AllowWebBrowserDrop = false;
webBrowser1.IsWebBrowserContextMenuEnabled = false;
webBrowser1.WebBrowserShortcutsEnabled = false;
webBrowser1.ObjectForScripting = this;
// Uncomment the following line when you are finished debugging.
//webBrowser1.ScriptErrorsSuppressed = true;
webBrowser1.DocumentText =
"<html><head><script>" +
"function test(message) { alert(message); }" +
"</script></head><body><button " +
"onclick=\"window.external.Test('called from script code')\">" +
"call client code from script code</button>" +
"</body></html>";
}
public void Test(String message)
{
MessageBox.Show(message, "client code");
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
webBrowser1.Document.InvokeScript("test",
new String[] { "called from client code" });
}
}
