Question

I tried this code. All works, but I can’t find a way to reach the DOM or to call JavaScript from it. Any ideas how to do that? This is using GTK# and WebKitSharp.

EDIT: Also I need to get the result.

Answer 1

webView.ExecuteScript("alert('An alert from C#!');");

will do the trick.

Getting the results back is another challange though: WebKit.DOMDocument is not implemented in webkit-sharp, so you can’t access the DOM. There are a few workarounds, this is what we normally do:

• Have a invisible frame somwhere in your page
• Get the WebFrame for it via webView.MainFrame.FindFrame("framename")
• in your JS write your result to the title of this invisible frame
• use myWebFrame.Title to read it from C#
