how to scroll WebBrowser

[Zytan]

This page
http://www.codeproject.com/miscctrl/scrollbrowser.asp
claims it can be done like so, in VB (and thus C#, I presume):

m_browser.Document.Body.ScrollTop = 100;

But, this does not work. I've already tried sending WM_VSCROLL with
SB_BOTTOM, and it doesn't work. It must be possible, though.

Ben, thanks for the tip. I actuall figured it out over the weekend:

private void Scroll(WebBrowser webControl)
{
if (webControl.Document != null)
webControl.Document.Body.ScrollTop = int.MaxValue;
}

But, it seems to only work when you do:
webControl.Document.Write(s);
and not when you call this first, like MSDN asks you to:
webControl.Document.OpenNew(true);
this means that Write just appends. Since I'm just making a logger,
that's good enough! Why slow it down by reloading the entire thing,
when I can just append?

Also, to get a Document != null, you need to navigate somewhere first,
I choose about:blank

This method is the same as my method, and it doesn't work if the
webpage contains a DOCTYPE, which a conformant webpage should.
ScrollTop just stops working.

I need another solution, since I need a DOCTYPE so that the browser
knows to render the CSS as it is supposed to be rendered. The CSS
code "white-spacere;" does not work without it.
