[WebGadget] Page error causes program error

[es_91]

Hi. I am hoping to get some answers here.

The WebGadget is a wonderful thing and with the community support of PB you can really turn it into something very useful for your PC application.

However, a page error on some pages causes my WebGadget to shut down the entire program. See:

*** BE CAREFUL! THIS IS NOT A SYSTEM MESSAGE FROM YOUR PC! ***



Translation:

The script of this page contains an error.

Line: 29
Sign: 166
Error: Invalid Argument

Do you want scripts on this page to be furtherly executed?

YES/No



Translation:

PureBasic_Compilation1.exe does not work anymore

CLOSE PROGRAM

What can I do?

[ts-soft]

Code: Select all

Define browser.IWebBrowser2
browser = GetWindowLongPtr_(GadgetID(0), #GWL_USERDATA) 
If browser: browser\put_Silent(#True): EndIf 

[es_91]

That removes the page error message but it does not stop the program from crashing.

Please try it yourself and tell me if it crashed within three tries at your PC:

Code: Select all

If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 1200, 600, "WebGadget", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered) 
  WebGadget(0, 10, 10, 1180, 580, "http://www.faz.net")
  
  Define browser.IWebBrowser2
  browser = GetWindowLongPtr_(GadgetID(0), #GWL_USERDATA) 
  If browser: browser\put_Silent(#True): EndIf 
  
  Repeat 
  Until WaitWindowEvent() = #PB_Event_CloseWindow 
EndIf

[ts-soft]

Sorry, but there is no crashing!

Sorry, but there is no crashing!

Same here. 10 tries, no crash.

Thank you very much. Since now even chrome crashes on my PC it must be a problem of this. I just tried it on the PC of my neighbour he didn't receive crashes as well.

I'll check my PC.

BTW while trying some fullscreen browsing tools i wrote at the Windows 8.1 PC of my neighbour the screen was way too large in horizontal direction. Could somebody who is using 8.1 please confirm to me that the DesktopWidth() function works correct under 8.1? Maybe this is a bug.

[ts-soft]

DesktopWidht(0) works as it should on win 8.1.
Your examplecode works also without crash.
