HTML pages often use the META

tags within an HTML document, finds the META
tag with the name Description
, and displays it to the user. The code example requires that your application has a WebBrowser control named WebBrowser1
.
private void DisplayMetaDescription()
{
if (webBrowser1.Document != null)
{
HtmlElementCollection elems = webBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("META");
foreach (HtmlElement elem in elems)
{
String nameStr = elem.GetAttribute("name");
if (nameStr != null && nameStr.Length != 0)
{
String contentStr = elem.GetAttribute("content");
MessageBox.Show("Document: " + webBrowser1.Url.ToString() + "\nDescription: " + contentStr);
}
}
}
}
Private Sub DisplayMetaDescription()
If (WebBrowser1.Document IsNot Nothing) Then
Dim Elems As HtmlElementCollection
Dim WebOC as WebBrowser = WebBrowser1
Elems = WebOC.Document.GetElementsByTagName("META")
For Each elem As HtmlElement In Elems
Dim NameStr As String = elem.GetAttribute("name")
If ((NameStr IsNot Nothing) And (NameStr.Length <> 0)) Then
If NameStr.ToLower().Equals("description") Then
Dim ContentStr As String = elem.GetAttribute("content")
MessageBox.Show("Document: " & WebOC.Url.ToString() & vbCrLf & "Description: " & ContentStr)
End If
End If
