I would like to be able to goto yahoo's or other web pages and focus their edit controls or get a useable window id. example. user id, password, search controls. Then store them so when I go back to that web page I can send data to them.

How do you do this. I've seen other programs that do this but I havent been able to figure it out.

You would have to use a browser helper object, which is a dll that is loaded anytime a copy of IE is open. Then get down into the html layer which Internet Explorer's COM interface allows. Unfortunately not really possible in VDS unless a dll is written to interface directly with the html portion/layer.

Any one interested in dabbling in this. I was looking for a browser helper object to help me interface vds apps with web apps. Hence inject variables into a web form, get data out of a html form etc.

Or could gadget do this??
