Question

I’m using a Web Browser Control in a C# Winform Application. I’m loading local files to the WebBrowser Control. I want to pull the information from the file that is currently loaded in the WebBrowser control to a FileInfo Method.

I’ve tried

FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(webBrowser1.Url.ToString());

Throws the error:

URI formats are not supported.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Try the LocalPath property of the Uri object stored in the Url property:

FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(webBrowser1.Url.LocalPath);
