Windows Native codes for forward and backward

I'm a WPF developer, i have tecknet wireless mouse with me, and it have two extra buttons.
when i click on them it navigates to-fro from history in browser.
Interestingly, it also works on Windows Explorer, Microsoft Outlook and VisualStudio. Means i can go to previously visited files or location by one button and can come to current by another button.
I tried to find, how they implement this one in their driver, so far no luck. If you guys know about this, share the information. I will use it in my next application.
Thanks,

Could not insert table using radeditor control in IE(9 and 10)

I am using rad editor for editing html of one of the module in my project. Everything works perfectly in all browser except IE10(as well as IE9). In IE, i can not insert table object which is given in rad control. also addition of symbol,undo doesn't work.if i click on any of these menus, then editor in design mode is not editable. i need to switch to html mode and then design mode to maker it work again. also the UI seems to be shaking in right side and bottom of editor.
Any help guys.....!!!!

Try their latest version. If yours is old it may not support these browsers.
A workaround for that may be adding an x-ua compatible meta tag to your page to put IE in IE8 mode

Internet explorer 8 issues with design

I'm working on a project a tool to track holidays and there are some parts of this application (report administration), the role "user" should not see. So far that works without problems, but somehow the representation of the parts that a "user" should not see look terrible:
The permission who should see something on the page is controlled in the Web.sitemap
<siteMapNode title="Vacation" roles="Administrator,Location Business Leader,Business Leader,Department Leader" description="All employees with vacation" url="~/EmployeeView/UserVacationGrid.aspx" />
If someone had the same problem and, could you give me some good tips or a solution how to fix this I would really appreciate it!

The problem is that whatever you are hiding (either client side or server side) is not encapsulating all of the controls associated. So for example, if you were using an ASP.NET menu, then you could hide a menu option server side with the following code:
switch (UserRole) {
case "Administrator":
Menu1.Items.Item(0).Enabled = false;
break;
}
These controls will make sure to collapse all the associated HTML with that option. If however you are using your own controls, or hiding things client side you need to make sure to hide the entire container (i.e. <div>) containing the control. A good way to do this is with jQuery:
$("#divVacationControl").hide();
Your best bet at figuring out which controls in IE8 are not being hidden and leaving that undesirable look is to use the IE developer toolbar. You can access it via F12 button, or Tools -> Developer Tools It can also be downloaded from here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=18359
Once open use the 'Select Element by Click' function to inspect the non-hidden elements and inspect the DOM. You can then find the culprit not being hidden and check your logic.
The last method if it only happen in a certain browser is to set its compatibility mode. Not saying this is the best way but it's an option. You can read how to do this in a blog post of mine below; just use IE7 or whatever worked for you. I would not recommend this approach as a long term solution unless this is a corporate intranet app that you have total control over the environment.

Webbrowser and IE acts differently?

I'm in a trouble trying to fix some problem.. I have a program with Webbrowser control inside it.
It automates crawling process from some website. The problem is that I cannot fix webbrowser after recent website changes.
They have changed page navigation on website. And when I do actions MANUALLY in webbrowser (in my app) it doesn't go to the next/previous page on website. It does nothing... Whereas it works properly in IE 7/8/9 (only scripting errors thrown this time).
So does it mean that Webbrowser is not fully similar to IE??
I'm sorry for not showing source codes here, I think it wouldn't help here. Which way should I go to troubleshoot it? Why page navigation is not working in Webbrowser control?
I tried to simply put Webbrowser on a Window Form in new project and tried to navigate page 2/3/../10 in the website catalog, but it simply changes page number and doesn't navigate to it...
EDIT: Website doesn't work propely even if I do actions manually in webbrowser using mouse clicks.. but works in IE.
EDIT2: I might be not clear in my question. The problem is that I cannot use website even Manually with mouseclicks via my Webbrowser control in app. It changes page number after I click on it, but it doesn't navigate to that page. It stays silent. I'm sure that AllowNavigation property is true. It worked just yesterday and stopped after website changes today... Please tell me which way should I go to troubleshoot it.. I thought that Webbrowser control acts the same way as Internet Explorer.. Any help from you highly appreciated! Thanks
EDIT3: Strange thing... i just loaded Extended Webbrowser and navigated to that website. Page navigation panel doesn't work there also.. Is it a bug on their side or some type of guard from crawlers? What do you think?

I'm sure this isn't the answer your want but using the webbrowser control to scrape websites is very painful to maintain.
Instead use the HttpWebRequest and HttpWebRepsonse objects to recreate the calls to the webserver.
You can use Fiddler (http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2) and your browser to record your web sessions and recreate them in code.

You can setup your webbrowser control to disable a number of features including navigation.
I.e. to disable nav in the C# WebBrowser control:
webBrowser1.AllowNavigation = false;
I'd double check that you're not doing anything like this.

I had the same issue with a certain web site that recently changed its format. It has to do with the version of IE used by the control.
Simply force the IE version used to the latest (in my case 9). Setting the appropriate registry item to 9999 for my application worked; see: Webbrowser control behaving different than IE

ASP.NET Menu control changing position after postback

I am currently testing a menu in ASP.NET I've recently made using asp:menu control.
The menu is just as I want it to be right now, but whenever there is a postback that updates the whole page, it moves a little downwards (only once, a second postback won't move it a little bit more).
It's not CSS - > I've removed all CSS from this menu)
It's not any property -> I've commented out everything related to customizing the menu
It's not any other element above it enlarging -> I've specially put it inside a table, in which the only content is the asp:menu control
It moves a lot downwards in IE6, a little in IE8, and it doesn't move at all in Firefox 4.
What could I do ? Are there any alternatives ? Is there any property I can use, or any outer element I could put it inside in order for it to stay still ?
And yes, every single machine this is going to run in is using Internet Explorer. The nightmare of any web developer.
---[update]-----
I've built a menu in a separate project, and the effect wasn't there! I've copied the exact same files into my project, and ran it, and the issue was there.
Could it be a difference in the asp.net version ?

Did you check using IE web developer toolbar to see what's the html looks like in that area before and after the postback? It seems more like a browser issue so the toolbar would give you details as what is coming in the gap or may be what's pushing it down.

If the app is in asp.net 4.0, look at the source code of the page after it renders the first time, and then after the postback. Make sure it renders as divs on both or tables on both.
I currently have a similar issue where my menu "spreads out" on the postback. Before the postback, it renders divs. After the postback, it renders tables.
There is specifically a property on the menu "RenderingMode" which is suppose to control this, but it is not working for me.

I had the same problem. My navigation menu sits in an UpdatePanel, and I changed the UpdateMode from Always to Conditional - problem solved. This was in my master page.
