    Dim myElement As HtmlElement = browser.Document.ActiveElement
    Dim target As String = myElement.GetAttribute("href")
    Dim nw As New swb

Hi

It's a bit difficult to say how you might achieve this without seeing your code for the wbf class and swb.

However, if this was just a simple form with a browser control and you wanted to open another instance of the form with the Url set to the first link found in the displayed document, then the following would work:

Dim myElement As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.ActiveElement
Dim target As String = myElement.Children(0).GetAttribute("href")
Dim nw As New Form1
nw.Show()
nw.WebBrowser1.Navigate(target)

However, the above assumes that there is only one link on the page so it is not ideal. Do you have some other means of getting the address, such as an ID for the link that you are interested in?

    Inherits WebBrowser
