IEWebBrowserMBS.Navigate(URL as string, Flags as Integer = 0, TargetFrameName as String = "", PostData as String = "", Headers as String = "")
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
method | HTMLViewer Win | MBS Win Plugin | 20.1 | ❌ No | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ❌ No | Desktop only |
URL: The URL, full path, or Universal Naming Convention (UNC) location and name of the resource to display.
Flags: The combination of Navigate* constants.
TargetFrameName: Optional, the name of the frame in which to display the resource.
PostData: The post data that is sent to the server as part of a HTTP POST transaction. A POST transaction is typically used to send data gathered by an HTML form. If this parameter does not specify any post data, this method issues an HTTP GET transaction. This parameter is ignored if the URL is not an HTTP URL.
Headers: The text list that contains additional HTTP headers to send to the server. These headers are added to the default headers. For example, headers can specify the action required of the server, the type of data being passed to the server, or a status code. This parameter is ignored if the URL is not an HTTP URL.
The possible values for the TargetFrameName parameter are:
_blank | Load the link into a new unnamed window. |
_parent | Load the link into the immediate parent of the document the link is in. |
_self | Load the link into the same window the link was clicked in. |
_top | Load the link into the full body of the current window. |
WindowName | A named HTML frame. If no frame or window exists that matches the specified target name, a new window is opened for the specified link. |

This method is the same as clicking the Refresh button or pressing F5 in Windows Internet Explorer.
To save time and network bandwidth, the WebBrowser control and InternetExplorer application store pages from recently visited sites in cached memory on the user's hard disk. When you revisit a Web site, the page is reloaded from the local disk instead of being downloaded again from the server. To ensure that you are viewing the most current version of the page, you can force a fresh download by using the Refresh method. This method adds the "Pragma: No-cache" HTTP header to the request.

Known issues:

- HTTPs tab shows no data.
- You may need to click reload in the DebugBar (orange arrow in toolbar) when switching to another page.
- Running JavaScript works, but doesn't show errors or results.
- The inspect element in context menu command does not work.
Returns true on success or false on failure.
NoScale: disable scaling on >100% screen.
TopMost: Put the window always on top of other windows.
X, Y, width and height allow to position the window. Default is near center of screen with 600x400 in size.
