It's because Mozilla is set as your default browser.

And no, I have no idea how to fix it.

A long time ago, I spent a fair amount of time trying to solve is but as far as I'm aware its not possible.

I know it is, I know someone who made a Web Browser.
I'll Ask him.

Why are you trying to make a browser out of the .net one anyway, why don't you just use Firefox? If you were making the whole thing by yourself and not using the .Net WebBrowser control there would be a learning experience in it, but this is just reinventing the wheel by taking someone elses and then taking out features...

It's not that. I am still working of FTP Pro and i need to be able to open folders in the Xbox browser in order for this to work right.

The connect to system is FAR more advanced. Allowing you to select where you want to go!
Example:
Connect To> [Xbox name]>[Directory]>[Games]>[folder name]>Maps

or for application sending.
Connect To> [Xbox name]>[Directory]>[Apps]

If you want a preview picture of what its becoming.

It's quite possible

Code: Select all

    Private Sub WebBrowser1_NewWindow(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.NewWindow

        ' Stop the opening of a new window.
        e.Cancel = True

        ' If the user clicked a link, navigate to it in the current window.
        Dim curElement As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveElement
        If curElement.TagName.ToLower() = "a" Then
            Dim linkStr As String = curElement.GetAttribute("href")
            WebBrowser1.Navigate(linkStr)
        End If

    End Sub

this works for a web browser but doesn't work for ftping to your xbox. it gives me the same results.

I'm sure you can modify it to work for you. Take a look at the WebBrowser.Document and other properties to see what you can hook onto instead of 'a'.

Who the fuck plays that game. gash!!!

It's quite possible

Code: Select all

    Private Sub WebBrowser1_NewWindow(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.NewWindow

        ' Stop the opening of a new window.
        e.Cancel = True

        ' If the user clicked a link, navigate to it in the current window.
        Dim curElement As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveElement
        If curElement.TagName.ToLower() = "a" Then
            Dim linkStr As String = curElement.GetAttribute("href")
            WebBrowser1.Navigate(linkStr)
        End If

    End Sub

I know I'm bumping an old topic but how do I convert that to C#? That may sound stupid but I just started learning C# and all the tuts I've found were the very basics.

[code]
private void webBrowser1_NewWindow(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
// stop the opening of a new window
e.Cancel = true;

// if the user clicked a link, naviage to it in the current window
HtmlElement curElement = WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveElement;
if(curElement.TagName.ToLower() == "a")
{
string linkStr = curElement.GetAttribute("href");
WebBrowser1.Navigate(linkStr);
}
}

Ok well all of this info is good and stuff, but it still doesn't solve my problem. I need to know how a real FTP Program would work. (Smart FTP Client, Flash FXP, FileZilla, etc.)
