MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. In Microsoft Visual Basic, create a new Standard EXE project.
2. In the Toolbox, add a component reference to Microsoft Internet Control.
3. Add a WebBrowser control, a text box, and three buttons to the default form, Form1.
4. Copy the following code into the code module of Form1:

   Option Explicit
   Private Sub Command1_Click()
       WebBrowser1.Navigate2 Text1.Text
   End Sub
   
   Private Sub Command2_Click()
       WebBrowser1.Visible = Not WebBrowser1.Visible
   End Sub
   
   Private Sub Command3_Click()
       MsgBox WebBrowser1.LocationURL
   End Sub
   
   Private Sub Form_Load()
       WebBrowser1.Visible = False
       Text1.Text = "http://www.microsoft.com"
       Command1.Caption = "Navigate"
       Command2.Caption = "Make Visible"
       Command3.Caption = "Current_URL"
   End Sub
   
   Private Sub WebBrowser1_BeforeNavigate2(ByVal pDisp As Object, URL As Variant, Flags As Variant, TargetFrameName As Variant, PostData As Variant, Headers As Variant, Cancel As Boolean)
       MsgBox "BeforeNavigate Event"
   End Sub
   
   Private Sub WebBrowser1_NavigateComplete2(ByVal pDisp As Object, URL As Variant)
       MsgBox "NavigateComplete Event" 
   End Sub
   					

5. Press the F5 key to run the project.
6. Click Navigate. Both the BeforeNavigate event message box and the NavigateComplete event message box appear.
7. In the text box, type another URL such as http://msdn.microsoft.com. The message box for the BeforeNavigate event appears, but the message box for the NavigateComplete event does not.
8. Click Make Visible to show the WebBrowser control, or click Current_URL. The current page remains at http://www.microsoft.com.
