SYMPTOMS

The Internet Explorer 3.x WebBrowser control fires an event called BeforeNavigate before navigating to a URL. The BeforeNavigate event handler receives various information including the PostData. PostData is data that is sent along with an HTTP POST transaction when a form is submitted on a Web page. Also, this data can be sent by a call to Navigate().

When this PostData parameter is received in a BeforeNavigate event handler, it is empty.

STATUS
