Internet Explorer Addon

Hi,

I am creating an Internet Explorer add on. I am doing this using
Browser Help Objects in C++. I've been programming for many years but
mainly as a c# developer and have had little experience with C++.

I have got a basic add on into Internet Explorer, you press a button
it fires an event. Within this event I would like to get the current
URL. How do I do this?

Thanks in advance for any comments

you can do this using the IUnknown *pUnkSite passed to you as the
argument of IObjectWithSite::SetSite;
First, Query the IWebBrowser2* interface pointer from pUnkSite;
CComQIPtr<IWebBrowser2> pWebBrowser2 = pUnkSite;
then get URL through the LocationURL method of IWebBrowser2;
CComBSTR bstrUrl;
pWebBrowser2->get_LocationURL(&bstrUrl);
and now bstrUrl is what you need;

This error is raised when I try "HRESULT hr2 = m_spWebBrowser-

Many years? MANY? Microsoft released their first implementation in
2001, so you are talking 6 years at most. That's MANY???

No, I have other programming languages I've worked with for many
years, just c++ one I've little experience with. I was just giving an
intro. Why make so much of it?

While your post is off-topic because it did not actually ask or answer a
C++ question, please do not feel unwelcome. The best way to introduce
yourself here after you have spent time just reading other people's
posts (to get a feel for the group) is to either post a C++ question or
to try answering someone else's. The group's FAQ contains a wealth of
useful information, including advice on topicality and how to post.

Cheers, & hth.,
