Question

Hi i’m creating an application, I have two separate pages one main and a Web Browser page.

What i have on the main page is a textBlock and a button and on the Web Browser i only have the Web Browser Control.

What i need to do is that if the user writes for example chocolate or anything else in the textblock it should somehow be transferred to the webbrowser Control and search on chocolate there automatically when you press the button on the main page.

I need some help knowing what to write here so any help would be appreciated.

For the web browser i have written the following code please tell suggestions of improvements if you have:

webBrowser1.source = (new Uri("http://bing.com/" , Urikind.Absolute));

You can see each search engine pattern here

"Google", URLPattern = "http://www.google.com/search?q={0}"
"Yahoo", URLPattern = "http://search.yahoo.com/search?p={0}"
"Bing", URLPattern = "http://www.bing.com/search?q={0}"

Just replace your text with it:
for example:

String url = String.Format(URLPattern, textblock.Text);
webBrowser1.source = (new Uri(string.Format(url) , Urikind.Absolute));
