C# - Handling symbols in webbrowser control

We will be facing issues with WebBrowser control in C#.net for handling symbols such as Ø,½ and ±. We may face issues even when we set appropriate character encoding for the webbrowser control. It seems documenttext property is not handling symbols properly. To overcome this issue, we can get the header and body details separately instead of using documenttext.

The code can be written as below,
string strhead = webBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("head")[0].OuterHtml;
string strbody = webBrowser1.Document.Body.OuterHtml;
string strhtml = strhead + strbody;

Cross browser web development.

The important challenge for any web developer is making the website work in many different types of browsers(IE, FireFox, Safari, and Chrome) and also in different browser versions.
To achieve this, we may need to write separate code for each browser if same code behaves differently in each browser, and need to use the respecive code based on the browser type.

In server side coding, it can be done using USER_AGENT. In client side coding it can be handled using 'navigator.appName' in javascript.

Online Bookmark

We are having Bookmark (FireFox)/Favorites (IE) in our browsers to store URLs of frequently used websites.
But it will be useful only when you are using same machine for all your work.
(i-e it will be stored in your local machine only).

To overcome this problem, many online bookmarking sites (e.g spurl.net)are available.
- They will allow you access your bookmark/favorites from any machine connected to Internet.
- They will suggest you the URLs which are bookmarked by many people.
- Mostly they will be free.(But anyway they will be getting income by selling the browsing pattern of users to the Marketing/Research people).

We may face issue if we try to use database created by one version of MySql server in another version of Mysql server.

In this case, we can export the structure and data as sql query using phpmyadmin from source server. And then, we can import this sql query to the destination server.

MySQL - Importing Large sql file

It is difficult to import schema and data from large size sql file using phpymyadmin. Because it will fail due to memory limitation or time out setting.

In this case we use commandline feature for mysql to process the large sql file.

We can use like below
mysql> SOURCE /path/to/file.sql;

For doing this we should have access to the mysql server. But practically it is not possible to have direct access to mysql server all times Because most of the servers will be available in remote machine only.
So I am looking for any feasible solution to achieve it thro' web UI itself (i-e similar to phpmyadmin). If anyone knows any appropriate solution you can share it here thro' comments.

Offline Crawling - Resolved the issue with webbrowser control in C#

It seems Webbrowser control in C# is more useful for scraping contents from websites and also for doing autologin and autoposting of contents.

Offline scraping will save more time. i-e In offline scraping, we crawl the website onetime and download all the webpages onetime. We can scrap the required contents from the downloaded pages at any number of times without worrying about network constraints.

But we have faced many issues in using webbrowser control for offline scraping.
After searching the net, I came to know that many people are facing similar issue.
Please find below the code which will solve the issue.

string partHtmlpage = "Your html page"
webBrowser1.AllowNavigation = true;
if (webBrowser1.Document != null)
{
webBrowser1.Document.OpenNew(true);

}
else
{
webBrowser1.Navigate("about:blank");


}
webBrowser1.Document.Write(partHtmlpage);
