Hello, I have a problem, I want to open a browser many times, but I dont want to open a new window every time, but do that in one window, is that possible without browsercontrol?
Example code:

C#

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           string url = "link/id=12345";
           System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(url);

What browser, in what application type? What's the problem? Why doing so? Why not simply navigating with the same browser instance?

Browser is default, currently using mozilla, the problem is that when Button_1_click happens, application opens a new windows with the current URL, But I want so the browser would just navigate from page to page in one window, I need this so I could navigate from page to page more quickly, not typing the link manually all the time, but with a simple app just go to the link I need. I want to navigate in the default browser, not the builtin wrapped webbrowser1

C# alone, the answer is no. The given code only start the Browser process, but not actually doing anything with the browser control.

You may use

C#

HtmlPage.Window.Navigate(new Uri("http://stackoverflow.com/"), "_blank");

which will open on a new ab on IE.

you could try set your default browser to mozilla, but I am not sure if this will work.
