CefSharp GetSourceAsync help wanted by Amaitland

[joefjell]

Hi Amaitland,

Do you have possibility to help us and how much do you want for helping us with the following:

I have tried to get source code with GetSourceAsync without success.
In short: I want to be able to click a button (or through method call) and the method being called should retrieve the source code (all source code, also dynamically genererated code).

Best regards
Joe, Sweden

Hi Joe,

If you can answer a couple of questions first that'll give me a better idea of what's required for this.

I have tried to get source code with GetSourceAsync without success.

Are you seeing an exception? What's going on exactly?

Can you please provide a code example so I can see what you are doing.

If I call GetSourceAsync on private void Browser_LoadingStateChanged(object? sender, LoadingStateChangedEventArgs e) { if (e.IsLoading) return; browser.GetSourceAsync().ContinueWith(taskHtml => { if (taskHtml.Result != null) HtmlSource = taskHtml.Result; }); } private void Browser_FrameLoadEnd(object? sender, FrameLoadEndEventArgs e) { browser.GetSourceAsync().ContinueWith(taskHtml => { if(taskHtml.Result != null) HtmlSource = taskHtml.Result; }); } That works. But that is only initially. If I use GetSourceAsync on buttonClick then many times the html code is just partially read. I have tried many different solutions, and I haven't documented every try. But the latest is: private async void btnTest_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { browser.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(async () => { Task<string> t = browser.GetSourceAsync(); t.Wait(5000); HtmlSource = t.Result; }); } I now wonder if the source code could have some strange characters so the GetSourceAsync just stops in the middle. One example is that the last it reads is "<a data-control-id="[¢ ‰àDCÔ â". The full attribute, retrieved by ViewSource is "<a data-control-id="[¢ ‰àDCÔ â jäîŒ(". It seem to be always in the middle of a "data-control-id" that it stops reading. If you think you can help, then name how much you want for the help. But we only want to pay for a solution that works. Can I have direct contact so not all have to be posted on a forum?

That somewhat sounds like there's an upstream problem in CEF, possibly to do with the encoding. Would need a sample to debug.

If you think you can help, then name how much you want for the help. But we only want to pay for a solution that works.

There's a minimum fee of $50USD to cover the time required to debug/troubleshoot the issue. This covers the first half an hour, I'll know more once I start debugging, can provide an accurate estimate/quote then. If a fix/workaround takes half an hour or less then there would be no additional fee.

Can I have direct contact so not all have to be posted on a forum?

You can email me at cefsharpofficial at gmail dot com if that's preferable to you.
