Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the ShowSaveAsDialog method to implement a Save As menu option that is similar to the one on the Internet Explorer File menu. This example requires that your form contains a menu with a menu item called MenuItemFileSaveAs and a WebBrowser control called webBrowser1.

// Displays the Save dialog box.
void MenuItemFileSaveAs_Click( System::Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
{
   this->WebBrowser1->ShowSaveAsDialog();
}

// Displays the Save dialog box.
private void saveAsToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    webBrowser1.ShowSaveAsDialog();
}

' Displays the Save dialog box.
Private Sub saveAsToolStripMenuItem_Click( _
    ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) _
    Handles saveAsToolStripMenuItem.Click

    webBrowser1.ShowSaveAsDialog()

End Sub

Remarks

You can use this method to implement a Save As menu item similar to the one on the Internet Explorer File menu. The dialog box that appears when this method is called depends on the document type currently loaded.

Note

This method allows users to save only the contents of the document as it was originally loaded. Any modifications made to the document at run time through the Document property are not persisted. For information on retrieving the run-time modifications, see How to: Access the HTML Source in the Managed HTML Document Object Model.
