WebBrowser control on tab making main window inactive?

Unfortunately, I never found a (non-workaround) solution to the exact same problem that I had in the past. There is a way to prevent IE7 from stealing focus through ActiveX (so I've read), but I never pursued it.

Pdf into the WebBrowser control in the OnSelectedIndexChanged event of the TabControl so that the focus wasn't stolen until the user actually entered the tab where the WebBrowser control existed. I know this isn't the best, but it's all I have. These look promising though: Prevent WebBrowser control from stealing focus?

Thanks jskiles1. I saw those pages from a Google search, but they don't exactly address my particular problem. The first one talks about preventing the behavior I'm trying to create -- wish I had HIS problem!

The second one seems to be discussing saving and restoring focus before and after navigating to a webpage. However, I'll check into the parent form's Deactivate event and some of the WebBrowser's events as well. Thanks!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
