I know this may sound a little childish but I am adding a feature to my webbrowser that basically detects a dark background when the page is loading, and will prompt the user if they want to switch to a lighter background color (e.g. low vision)
The detection works just fine, its just I can't get it to actually CHANGE the color without throwing me an error...
here's what I have:
WebBrowser1.Document.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(BrowserOptions.ComboBox1.Text)
WebBrowser1.Document.LinkColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(BrowserOptions.ComboBox2.Text)
WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveLinkColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(BrowserOptions.ComboBox3.Text)
WebBrowser1.Document.VisitedLinkColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(BrowserOptions.ComboBox4.Text)
The color values are HEX (#000000) in the comboboxes.
any suggestions?
Curiousity only injured the cat.
I finished it off..
Muahahaha...

Well, you should probably using ToHtml, as you're plugging it into HTML, and not extracting it.
Also, an error message would be nice. So would source code, as I don't feel like mocking up a browser in VB.NET just to give an answer on an on-line forum.
