WebBrowser w/ CookieCollection

[andrewschools]

Hi,

I was wondering, can you send a CookieCollectio n to a System.Windows. Forms.WebBrowse r? If so, how would I go about doing this. What I've done so far is send a POST request to a login form using HttpWebRequest. Now I want to send that CookieCollectio n to the System.Windows. Forms.WebBrowse r so the user can see the protected page...

Thanks,
Andrew

It sounds like you are attempting to use Forums Authentication.
You should research this method of authentication to see how you can set authorization rights on specific restricted pages to particular individuals...

If you're using Visual Studio 2005/2008, Forums Authentication is made easy using Roles and Membership....c heck out this great online video tutorial for a quick demonstration on how this is easily done.

Hi Frinny,

Thanks for the info. Also, I did the following which solved my problem...

string cookie_string = "";
foreach (Cookie cook in cookies)
{

cookie_string += cook.ToString() + ";";

}

this.webBrowser1.Document.Cookie = cookie_string;

Thanks,
Andrew
